Hmmm. You think the MSM could get it correct or the Navy would inform them......

It's not the "USS Intrepid." The USS Intrepid was decomissioned on 15 Dec 1974.

It is now the Intrepid Sea, Air & Sapce Museum and the ship is refered to as either "The Intrepid" or the Ex-USS Intrepid"

God help the MSM

You may be right from a technical standpoint, but it's a pretty common mistake. The museum's website itself even uses the "USS" in a couple places.

Features aircraft carrier USS Intrepid, the destroyer USS Edson, submarine USS Growler and over 25 aircraft
