Cool.

Thanks to your Dad for his Korean War service.

New warships? This is a partial list of dream crafts:
1. Monitors—low in the water, armored, and armed with a pair of powerful railguns.
2. Battleships—built small, two turrets, automated so they can run with 300 man/woman crew. Rockets, torpedoes, anti-aircraft guns, rail guns.
3. Small carriers to operate helicopters and drones—like a swift Jeep Carrier.
4. Subs, deep divers, armed with Rail Guns, surface and blast the enemy.
5. Q-Boats that look like cargo container ships but are really light cruisers. Used to get in close and launch nukes.
7. Robot Subs—sail around the world with no crew, willing to ram or torpedo enemy ships.
8. Big Gun Cruisers armed with automatic eight inch guns that can fire ten shells a minute!
9. Patrol boats that fly three feet over the water, armed with ship killing rockets and torpedoes (USSR experimented with these)
10. A presidential Yacht armed like a gunboat—so Trump can do deals with other leaders. Big, impressive, state of the art.
11. A three masted Bark for use of the Naval Cadets.
