Even CWIS(sic) has its limits.

That would be CIWS.

How much time have you logged serving in a battle group?

Zero, and as you noted I do occasionally make a typo. Care to address the substance of my point? They’re vulnerable. Remember the Kitty Hawk getting caught with its pants down a few years ago? I wonder how many hours that Chinese crew had in CVBGs. No doubt their opinions as to carrier vulnerability (and US complacency) were also irrelevant. Never mind what other navies have done to our carrier groups in war games over the years. Maybe it’s all just disinformation on our part, or maybe we’ll never again face an enemy capable of counterpunching, but it makes me nervous.
