- drocer88 5y agoIf this thing turns out to be half as important as I figure it just might be, I'd say that they're all in line for some important promotions and personal citations.
- ohCh6zos 5y agoWhat do you figure the importance is?

- alamortsubite 5y agoI can't tell if you're being serious, but the comment to which you replied is a humorous and disturbing Kubrick reference.

- s5300 5y agoWorth keeping in mind where our Carrier Strike Groups & Amphibious Ready Groups are. https://news.usni.org/2022/02/07/usni-news-fleet-and-marine-tracker-feb-7-2022 https://news.usni.org/2022/02/07/usni-news-fleet-and-marine-... We’ve had 3+ in/around the South China Sea for quite some time now, & only one near Russia/Ukraine. Not to be too tinfoil hatty, but it would appear we have some major concerns in that area while Russia/Ukraine tensions have been building. I personally have a lot of friends on the Essex right now & worry about that being a major target if the US gets heavily involved with Russia & China decides to step in. I see it as essentially the most vulnerable of our aircraft carrying capable ships that are deployed.
