Agreed. The colors they use really blows me away as well.

interesting, the Turks didn’t, or apparently even try to, shoot down the Su-34 for violating their airspace. Either they figured they were overmatched or they’re worried about tweaking Putin’s nose again.

I was stationed on the USS Trenton, we were the ship that took the scientists out to a controlled explosion to sink the US SENATE America for research purposes. Took 3 separate attempts to finally sink her. Tough ship.

We had a nice friendly egg fight a few years ago between the USS Decatur, and a Minesweeper that I can’t remember the name of, as we took turns conducting “Leapfrog” exercises.

I'm seeing a whole new military strategy here... The next time they fly drones over our carriers, we send in the USS America pig droppers for a swine delivery to The nearest IRG base. That oughta freak them right out. 💪

I was on that cruise (USS America). Totally forgot about this! Thanks for the memory!
