And the world-class stupidity-fed ignorance continues...
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

It is the government public education system that creates such an abundance of ignorance.
"All that the South has ever desired was that the Union, as established by our forefathers, should be preserved, and that the government, as originally organized, should be administered in purity and truth." – Robert E. Lee

even though I'm retired, I'm condemned to dealing with the Navy on a daily basis and the decline is not only obvious, but catastrophic. It has been overtaken by bureaucrats, more interested in the 'process" than in operational readiness. And when coupled with the cancer that is the civilian GS employee, it's a recipe for disaster. As to the carrier, the math is simple. It takes three to make one. That is for every carrier deployed, you have one in maintenance and one undergoing what we cann the "turnaround training cycle". As of right now, I think we only have ten, because the Ford is basically useless. So there you are... How are civilian GS Navy employees a cancer?

Those that are 'untuned' to the fact of how important naval power in the form of aircraft carriers were to victory in the Leyte Gulf would problem get much better informed from talking with Vice Admiral Kurita!!

Ships that can’t deploy , planes that can’t fly , sailors playing on their phones and squabbling while standing watch , special forces hooked on drugs and not wanting to fight. We’re ramping up operations across the Middle East and Afghanistan again with drug addicted , poser , and worn out seal teams. The aircraft carrier isn’t going to be there for those guys and that’s another demoralizing thing for the teams and fleet to deal with. It’s heartbreaking to see how far the mighty have fallen.

I will say that if they can ever get the Ford to work and perform as promised she’ll be an impressive beast ! Problem is that at the current rate of progress by the time the three ordered Ford class carriers are ready there will be four or five old carriers needing to be retired.
