They need to rush the USS Ronald Reagan, and accompanying task force, to the waters just offshore of Beirut. Wouldn't that be great? -- geopolitical realities at the time required Reagan to pull the Marines out of Lebanon after the blast which killed some 200+, but then to have the USS Ronald Reagan itself return to Lebanon to protect the outbreak of freedom in that nation. That's my dream scenario.
The Reagan is not ready for her first deployment. Should come later this year, I think.
