#2 Aging Navy. Big expense to maintain. Sorry to see this happen but not much you can do. Compromise for sure. When you get old it is a series of compromises.

#3 Second oldest commissioned warship in the navy. The oldest is the Constitution, which has a few years lead on her.

This would make a great backyard ornament. :-)

You: "It's the USS Enterprise. I bought it on Ebay!"
Neighbor: "Want to get it out of my driveway? I gotta go to work!"

#11 I still say give it to the Brits - IIRC, in histoire' the very first USS Enterprise was a captured British vessel, originally already famous or notorious? in Amer eyes under the Brits, later to be so again under American control.
The Brits = NATO-EU need a CV until the "Queen Liz" CVFS come online, preferably one whose propellers won't keep falling off in righteous French resistance.

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
