Being that I live about 3 miles from Mayport (Jacksonville), the Navy is resistant to base at least one other carrier here favoring instead to keep all of them in Norfolk. Any military planner will sound the warning bells all day long about such a stupid move.

God help us if the worst happens there.

A Pearl Harbor type wipeout of carriers of any number would be disasterous at best.

The wun and his ilk would welcome it though.

IMO, we should have another 4 carriers out there somewhere rather than sitting ducks in home ports.
