I used to serve on a similar carrier. In theory, U.S. carriers are one of the best-guarded structures on the planet. We have whole classes of ships that only serve to protect carriers. I can't express the sheer volume and intensity of safeguards that all failed at once for this to happen. What the actual fuck is going on with this carrier group?
My father-in-law served on one as well. This has to be a major fuck up from everyone top on down. His only thought about it: they were getting it ready to deploy when they came under attack. The smaller destroyer class and others should have picked this up on radar and shot them down.
What's happening is that incompetence now rules every government department/agency, including the military, and now it is trickling down and affecting the rank & file. This is about Hegseth's leadership.
HitlerPig will never fire him, because Hegseth has pledged that he will turn the military on protesting American citizens, who are only exercising their 1st Amendment rights. He will also authorize the use of nuclear weapons when HitlerPig demands it, even if it is on a Blue Sanctuary City...ESPECIALLY if its on a Blue Sanctuary City.
Bruh, get that airdale propaganda out of here! The Navy doesn't have classes of ships that only serve to protect carriers, they're all multirole.
