Will this be Barry’s first test?

With the right boat and a few of my old shipmates there would be some fun to be had around there.

“Barry’s first test” is to show us a valid birth certificate -— one he’s failed at so far.

Sorry but I find it a bit amusing.
America has been keeping the sea lanes safe thanklessly for a long time and yet we are the big threat to peace on the planet. I say pull back our navy and let the pirates run wild. Force the EU and everyone else who gets a free ride to actually do something about it.
But hey, that’s just me...

I think it would be entertaining to send a tanker through there with about 50 United States Marines secreted on board. I’m betting the headline would read very differently.

I'm retired US Navy and spent 14 years at sea and I know as well as you do the US Navy simply hasn't the ships to do that kind of job.
