I’m sorry, but taking one of our few remaining carriers out of service as a national strategic asset to convert her to handling foreign ebola patients is one of the dumbest ideas I have seen or heard anywhere.

Not endorsing the idea of a ship, but if you wanted to do something like this, take the Kitty Hawk, Ranger, Independence or Constellation out of mothballs and refit HER for this questionable task.

You didn’t full read the post... The GW has to have a 5 Billion Dollar nuclear refueling soon or it is not combat ready And no one in Congress is stepping up to fund it versus putting the money in new carriers ... it is slated for mothballing already... and there are two new carriers slated to be built soon.

The older carriers in mothballs - it would take years to get them ready... obama will have all African Ebola patients into America by then
