Not to mention the sheer embarrassment. It’s one thing to choose to junk a ship.
Another to do so in public after an accidental fire at port on a 1.5B mini aircraft carrier.
- crisnoble 6y agoThe entire county smelling the burning ship for the 3rd day today, and they estimate a week total, seems more of an embarrassment to me. The military blows through 1.5B and the public wouldn't bat an eye. Leaving a flaming ship less than a mile from a major downtown for a week, and everyone will (is) complaining at the wastefulness of the Navy. I live 6 miles away and going outside is unbearable, people are smelling it 20+ miles away in Alpine and North County. I have been trying to imagine what it is like in the neighborhoods adjacent to the base right now, it was a hot week, and many don't have AC, keeping the windows closed is a nightmare.
