The one facility I am interested in seeing them hit is actually about 20 kilometers (16 kliks) from the Chinese border. They put these up there for a number of reasons....remoteness, near uranium, forested/or/mountain, and but not least, near China so they could perhaps have some spill over into China and ask for China's assistance in repelling the enemy if necessary.

I suppose most of those are support personnel, are the 15k Marines ready, training or rotating somehow?

All very eerie... especially with the announcement of the first cloned human being -- the world hath trespassed on the Creator...

I don't think their indoctrination, mentality, habits of thinking would remotely tolerate beginning to comprehend "futile."

They have lived futile for decades and not comprehended it.

Do YOU believe we have the CAPACITY to devastate NK's military and control machinery in one unannounced full scale strike on all their critical elements?

Otherwise, it seems to me, SK is toast.

Six carrier battle groups in the region... just like `91. Or is the Independence headed for North Korea?

I think Jan 2 is too soon for Iraq, the next one at the end of Jan might be more realistic.

One of the highlights of my entire life was a Tiger Cruise on the Nimitz.
