My Grandpas ship. Thankfully he got off when it got to Vallejo. I might not be here if he had gone on that final mission.

It is a great find for the benefit of our history and their families. But how long will it be before the worm turns and leftists will call their mission of nukes un-PC. It is not that far fetched in our new age of PC tyranny. We need to fight the pattern of historical change for PC just as we need to fight invaders entering our homes.

Perhaps Allen he can find Hillary’s 30000 emails.

Great, it’s been found, now leave it alone. There is no good reason to disturb it’s resting place
