I read something a long time ago, that USS Gambier Bay CVE 73 had been renamed during construction at the Kaiser Yard in Vancouver, WA. She was sunk by Japanese Naval gun fire at the Battle of Samar.

Captain Ned: Is this how men act on a man's ship? Where is your manliness? Fighting on deck is a serious breach on my articles of strict discipline! I'm afraid the guilty party is in for a very severe punishment!

Sailor #1: Captain.. I did indeed take Mr. Spunk's spot. I'm ready to accept my punishment..

First Mate Spunk: Captain! I threw the first blow. If anyone is to be punished, let it be me. I ask only that whatever you do, please don't put me in a tight-fitting Lassie costume and make me eat from a monogrammed dog dish.

Sailor #2: [ entering ] Captain, I encouraged this fight - punish me! Make me wear nipple-pinching clothespins, sir!

Sailor #3: [ entering ] Me, Captain! Punish me!

Captain Ned: Stop! I've heard enough! Your manly admission of guilt is most manful. However, as your Captain, it is I who must bear the full masculine responsibility! And therefore, I will be punished. Spunk! Take me alone! I want a boiling oil rub..

I think the Navy needs garbage scows. I propose the first be named the Obama, the second Carter, etc. In the future, all such scows should be named after “distinguished” Democrats..

The USS Walter Mondale is a laundry ship.

Seriously though, Carl Levin? Terrible choice.
