I’m sure this is not really practical,
but I would love to see our jets fly
over the strait shooting at the water
blowing up any mines that might be there.
It’s like clearing a minefield.
I really hope our guys are having the
time of their lives blowing stuff up.

“jets fly

The area is roughly about the size of New Jersey.

Mines are cleared by special ships that sail slightly ahead of other vessels.
