Has to be a guided missile destroyer. The main guns aren’t functional.
“Why are all the sailors in camo?”
So if the fall overboard no one will see them.
The cammy for all era is coming to an end. I think it got a little out of hand.
Camo for all works great on prime time TV.
Left idiot programming for idiot viewers.
You mean CSS Virginia.
Just replying in context to the other poster.
thanks
Naming ships after politicians was a mistake, is still a mistake, and will ALWAYS be a mistake.
Whether it’s THEIR politicians or OUR politicians - big, big mistake.
Agree 100%. I am a traditionalist, and think carriers should be Lexington, Hornet, Essex..etc.
Naming destroyers and such after people is fine to me.
Well, me too, up to a point.
But naming a capital ship the USS Ronald Reagan, or the USS George HW Bush, ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY GUARANTEES that there will be a USS Barack H. Obama and a USS William J. Clinton.
There's no room for discussion. He who says "A" says "B".
The USS Gerald R. Ford assures the USS Lyndon B. Johnson. The USS Carl Vinson assures the USS Nancy Pelosi.
I mean, how difficult is this to figure out?
I know. Heck, we have long named destroyers after people...which I think is appropriate.
But yes. You are 100% correct though...Hell, the USS Gabby Giffords??????????????????????????????????
Nauseating.
