I am ashamed...I feel betrayed...I feel like real bravery, courage and common sense, are all but forgotten virtues in this country now...

I would go AWOL from that command knowing what I know now about her.

That was over a year ago........Feb 10, 2012 3:38pm
But, it still upsets my stomach.

I kinda thought it might have been a typo on the date...Good thing I have not had lunch yet...Now I can decide whether or not I can keep it down...

That's it! The last straw! I'm renouncing my US Navy veteran status. As insufferable as leadership was in my day, they look like world class leaders compared to the bozos running the Navy now. What's next? A new rating for Day Care Worker? Gawd, what the Navy has come to.....

Hmmmmm...

I'm an Army guy (and an Infantryman so not known for being that bright)...

Won't a Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) need guns, big ones, that hold a lot of bullets???

I don't understand how this will be possible with GG's stance on evil assault weapons...

Will the ship be armed? Is that the reason her husband was buying that "Assault Rifle?"

a new kind of ship designed to bring the Navy fighting power into shallow coastal areas.

Aahhhh! I see.

Has EVERYBODY in the Gubmint lost their minds? I would not be surprised if there is a USS Trevon Martin next.
(CRAP - I hope I didn't give anybody ideas).

The Navy must have needed a vote on something from someone really, really bad to have had to consider that deal. I hope they got something worth it.

Naming ships after women, female pilots, soon there will be female SEALS (it's coming!)...... there have been a lot of changes in the Navy since I enlisted 50 years ago this June, and many more to come. Back then, I never dreamed of seeing a gorgeous CPO, and I have, or being hugged by a Commander (O-5), and I have, my daughter in law now on the Reagan.

You have accomplished much.

Oh, thanks, man. I just ate lunch. Way to go.

This is another example of how society has blurred the distinction between a hero and a victim. People should be honored for what they choose to do, not what happens to them.

Me too, 3 years 25 days, 16 hours and 37 minutes of sea duty and I was never once seasick, but this has me puking.

Wouldn't get me on board - that boat won't float.
