U.S.S. Midway

aircraft carriers are like floating cities, they have a mayor, (the captain) and the city council, (his officers), deputy mayor, (executive officer), intelligence and navigational officers are congressmen, senator and assorted political hackers, but unlike the political machine which abuses our tax dollars, these men and women operate and maintain this floating city, and when this floating city is at sea it becomes american soil. the ship was commissioned in sept. 1945 and served in nam and won its first airstrike in 1965 against two mig fighters. it won the last air battle in 1973 at the end of the nam war. just goes to show you if we left the wars to our commanders we would win every war and not have to turn tail and quit because of some flunky in the whitewhitlesshouse. so here is the ship, and please show your support of the men and women this memorial day, remember, they are boys and girls just like all of you.
