The price of an aircraft carrier is existential, nuclear war.

And has been since 1941.

Not a chance. Maybe “one of us” is well aware of this as in first hand information, but such a person would know this forum is monitored for such activity as “one of us” posting this.

Such things were monitored by ASA in the late 60’s/early 70’s. I could give you the project name, but who knows, maybe it’s still classified, in operation with much upgraded technology and methods.

The movie “3 Days of the Condor” somewhat resembles the project, and every time I hear the name of the movie I think of the project.

If my memory serves me correct, the beginning of 3 Days of the Condor is on an upper floor. This unto itself reminds me of the project, for their HQ was on an upper floor.

The things one never forgets.

Welp, the President said as much back in early January.

Qods Delenda Est.

The Holy City of Qods Must be destroyed.

Well, 1945, when we actually tested the first nuclear weapon, but I won’t quibble with you. ;-)

6917ESG, San Vito, EESD Ramstien, 26 IW Vogelweh, and then back to Ramstein. We had units in RAF Chicksands and Menwith Hill, Augsburg, Bad Aibling, various other unnamed and diverse locations. Is ASA = USAFSS/ESC? We all worked for Ft Meade...

“surface warships are obsolete”

>The Air Force has been pushing that line every since the 2nd WW. The Air Force thinks they ought to be whole show, “why have a Navy” they say.

The Navy has always been America’s first line of defense, one glance a globe, with the Atlantic and vast Pacific Oceans on either side, answers why.

Just seeing this thread. Heard a grain market trader wondering about China making so many recent purchases.

He speculated it ay be because China is planning something that will result in us not shipping them any grain after they start something.
