Incredible fleet.

I read E.B. Potter's Nimitz almost forty years ago, and vaguely recall the enormity of distance in the Pacific Ocean along with the effort to supply and keep the fleets operating.

We beat two major powers in less than four years. Today, the President cannot even say the name of our blood enemy, islam.

Can’t wait to post photos of “Muderer’s Row,” the lineup of Essex Class fleet carriers at anchorage at Ulithi in 1945.
