The handful of destroyers carrying Scan Eagle drones and Fire Scout robot helicopters could also be exempted from carrier-group duty, Gortney added. These vessels frequently sail alone along the East African coast in order to gather intelligence for Special Operations Forces secretly working ashore.

Well, it’s obvious that’s not a secret any more.

Secrets? Who needs secrets? It’s just one big friendly world out there where we provide money streams to our best friends who have sworn to bury us. And then here on what is supposed to be a Conservative forum, we have folks buttress the Leftist’s view that an ever shrinking military is actually the best thing.

Next year when they announce we’ll only have one active carrier group on the high seas, folks will come in to swear they never thought we’d come to our senses, but we finally have.

With friends like these, who needs enemies?

In this article is also touches on the fact that our 600 plus have in Reagan’s day is now a 78 ship Navy on the high seas.

We might just as well print business cards that say, “Attack at will...”
