June 13th, 2009 at 8:06 pmThank you very much for publicizing my idea. It really will help in spreading the word about Wear your Dolphins to work day. Would you be willing to consider running some art work closer to the date?
Sincerely,

January 5th, 2011 at 4:25 pmEssentially, Captain Honor has dedicated his life to the United States Navy. Exceptional leaders are difficuly to come by. By all accounts, this guy is an exceptional leader. A minor reprimand would have been more than sufficient in this case. The Navy has succumed to “popular culture” and will deny itself the services of an exceptional leader. If I went to war, I would ask myself one question. “Would I want to go to war with this guy”? The answer would be absolutely yes. The Captain will land on his feet no matter what. However, to me, this was a sad day for the United States Navy. I felt this situation should have been handled differently. Good luck to the Captain. He obviously has the support of a large portion of the American people.

March 17th, 2011 at 1:30 pmWhat happens to the USS Enterprise (CVN-65) after she is retired? I’m curious is any groups have begun positioning themselves to provide a permanent home/museum. Is this even possible? I also wonder what the process for decommissioning a Nuclear Powered Aircraft Carrier. Once decommed she won’t be able to be reactivated like conventional CVs, but will there be enough left of her upper superstucture to allow for eventual preservation?

March 18th, 2011 at 9:22 amHere’s a question, the US, France & UK are preparing to use military force to enforce a NFZ & “No Drive Zone” in Libya, but will NOT us our CVNs? Is Rota, Sigonella & Souba Bay just as good as a flattop off the Libyan coast?
