And there was a ship moored off Ireland performing abortions at one point.
- Someone 13y agoThat, in at least one case (and, AFAIK, all cases) wasn't commercial, but ideological: http://www.womenonwaves.org/en/page/769/in-collection/2582/ireland-2001 http://www.womenonwaves.org/en/page/769/in-collection/2582/i... Also, I would not call that surgery.
- rdl 13y agoBetter example is something like the USNS Comfort and USNS Mercy (or really any big surface combatant in the USN); they can do real surgery. I'd argue that Comfort and Mercy could do more good for US national security at sea, combined with LPD/LPH for cargo transport and personnel, than any other surface ships in the US fleet -- humanitarian missions probably improve security more than anything but the submarine nuclear deterrent.
