OT uss enterprise cvn65

[tractonutjd]

Anybody else po'd that the Obama administation is going to scrap our first nuclear powered aircraft carrier the Enterprise cvn65 at a cost of almost 860 MILLION dollars and its replacement is almost two years away?? The Natulis is saved and in Groton CT Why can't we take that 860 million and make her a museum??? I beleive she deserves better than the scap yard and off to communist CHINA!!!!!

 

[John Saeli]

Yes, I/m PO'd also. Why can't she still serve?
 

[Tommy Railsback]

Not only that, but a friend who has 2 sons in the Navy told me that Obama wants to mothball all but 2 of the other carriers.

My sailor just returned from deployment on the USS Enterprise, I was lucky enough to go out on Tiger Cruise and see for myself a day in the life of our sailors. 2 hours on the ship and you will see why she has done her service to our Navy. It has more mold and rust inside than anyone should have to live with, never mind the asbestos coverings on all the pipes. The ship is so old they cannot get replacement parts for it and had to fabricate as best as they can until it came home. As sad as it is that for a time there will be no USS Enterprise in our fleet, this faithful ship is more than due to be retired.

Thats great that you got to go on the tiger cruize! Once we destroy a piece of history we can't get it back. She should be saved. The Enterprise is just no ordaniary ship.
