USS Enterprise (CVN-65) is no more

[remsandpets]

I was at the inactivation ceremony where they took thr Big E out of service. It was a very moving service. The ship will spend the next several years getting defueled, and scrapped. The good news from the Secretary of the Navy is the next Ford class aircraft carrier (CVN-80) will hold the USS Enterprise name. The current Enterprise has served for 51 years. May the ship Gods welcome her into the fleet. Her flags are down, her lights are off and her nuclear reactors are being shut down for the last time.

Good. One less vessel made for killing people. Too bad it has a replacement.

Was she decommissioned in PNSY? My old boat was up there in mothballs and I think is still there. USS Farragut DDG-37.

One less vessel for keeping Americans free. Good thing it has a replacement.

Something against the military ?

[DasUberKraut]

Nothing wrong with the military at all.
I always walk up to a man or woman in uniform and shake their hand and thank them for their service.

It's the money grubbing douchebags that control the military that's the issue. Starting senseless wars over money and oil claiming they are fighting terrorism. That's the problem. We have plenty of oil under US soil that can sustain us but they refuse to use it.

Hate on us non warmongers all you want. We know we are in the right.

If you don't like the military to keep YOUR way of life, try to live in a country that has government or dictatorship suppression. YOU BEST THANK A VETERAN like myself and the military, FOR YOUR FREEDOM! Without freedom's the military brings you would not have freedom to speak your dislikes and gripes of the government! MAN, YOU HIT A BAD NERVE!

[DasUberKraut]

We do live under government suppression. The government feels the need to control every aspect of people's lives. Where they absolutely no right to do so. They also don't adhere to the constitution or the bill of rights.

Like I said nothing wrong with the military. It's the tyrants that control the military.

[remsandpets]

Then run for office and fix it! Enough said!

[DasUberKraut]

Run for office? Hardly. I can't even survive.

I think threads like this one is the reason there is not a politics and religion forum on this site.

Amen & i.b.t.l.

Yep, I agree. It was just a statement of things happening. Wishing I could have ridden my trike on the sand at Virginia beach. Now that would have been fun! (3 wheeler content inserted)

That's good news. Didn't know it took that long to refuel.

You know I signed up because I wanted to defend the people of our nation at home or abroad. Then I realized that there where a lot of these haters that weren't man enough to defend our
nation in war/conflict, peace time. It floors me how big and bad these people are sitting behind a keyboard. Your welcome anyway...
