could lose an aircraft carrier.
As I understand it, Navy brass has always considered operations in the Gulf akin to fighting in a coal sack.
Hope for safety.

(45 posts)That will be a surreal press conference.
"Well...guess they got one huh. Pete...how many nuclear carriers have we lost in battle. Guess the USS Jimmy Carter got sunk I don't see it here on the list. Guess it ran on peanut oil . NUCLEAR folks... that's what lasts ... give me a good NUKE carrier. Oh well... This happens...if it's made to float & gets hit by a nuke then it's made to sink. Guess they'd better start building one named after me. USS Donald J. Trump.. that's a boat you want to sail on. One boat you do NOT sail on is the O-B-A-M-A... NOT a boat to go to war in. A weak boat... No Metrosexual boating in the US NAVY, please!"
