Yeah, I remember. They’re there sitting in the middle of the Persian Gulf with their CIWS TAGGED OUT. Deadly mistake.

Yeah, we got sucker punched. Should never happen again. I worked with a guy who was on a carrier in the 50's. During a port call in South America, protesters came out in small boats, the ship played fire hoses on them to keep them away. I like NavyShoe's solution better: CIWS them 72 virgins, express delivery.
