See my post 24. I feel similarly about all the Spruance class ships that have been decommmissioned. They are still world class and very capable, 15 or more years of service life left in them. We have already scrapped or sunk (in naval exercises) quite a few of those.

My last ship USS FLETCHER DD-992 was decommissioned just a year ago next month..
Looking at these ships make me realize I saw them only 18 years ago at 32nd Street Naval Station???
