USS America (LHA 6) Conducts Flight Operations April 18, 2020 (Mega Thread - Bandwidth Killer!)...pics by Seaman Jomark Almazan
It occurs that the US Navy is flexing the America into a full blown carrier mission (I guess) with the Theodore Roosevelt going down. That simple affair had lasting ramifications that the unknowing still don't want to acknowledge.
That affairs showed tremendous weakness and the Chinese noticed.
If that bubba gets command of that ship after his actions then the entire Navy leadership needs to be purged then fast marched to a federal prison.
What's going on here? Amphibious assault ship USS America sailing at high speed in the South China Sea today, heading to West Capella drillship
Thanks to Donno for the link!
Are we actually seeing the wake from that ship? Ok. You can throw out the bullshit of those things having a max speed of 20 knots can't we?
Interesting.
I hope the Navy and Marine Corps don't take the wrong lessons from this action. I have NO VISIBILITY on what's going on but if this is the standard Chinese intimidation technique then we're looking at the Chinese Coast Guard trying to bully other nations.
Sending an L-Class Carrier (CONGRATS USMC...you got me using that term!) to deal with it is kinda overkill in my opinon.
We'll see what we'll see. More to come.

U.N. warns economic downturn could kill hundreds of thousands of children in 2020
via Reuters
The economy is about more than just wall street. The morality play we're involved in has consequences. Either the old, weak and infirm lay by the wayside or children suffer.
The wording I used is blunt but the choice is clear.
The cure to this disease will (by way of the actions of a majority of the world's population) cause more suffering than the disease itself.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Many (including quite a few people here) are emoting and trying to virtue signal moral superiority on an issue where cold, hard logic is required.
In short?
We do the hard thing now and take some pain or we virtue signal/emote/moralize and take even more pain later.
Open the fucking economy and save lives.
Hundreds of thousands of children could die this year due to the global economic downturn sparked by the coronavirus pandemic and tens of millions more could fall into extreme poverty as a result of the crisis, the United Nations warned on Thursday.Here.
