At random: Traditionally, United States submarines have been named after fish and other marine creatures. One exception was the Navy's first submarine HOLLAND which was named after its inventor, John Philip Holland. Today, ballistic missile submarines are named for famous American patriots, with the newest class, the OHIO class, named after states. The LOS ANGELES class of attack submarines are named for United States cities. The nations news class of submarine, the Virginia class, is also named for US States, making them the capital ships of the navy.

We used to say the Midnight Train to anywhere but Boston. A lot of things happen around midnight particularily if your dog watch falls asleep. I salute the men and women that pulled off and asissted in pulling off the midnight train into Iran. BZ. Fram a military standpoint, it was a mission never before lauched. Thank goodness my tax money went for something I am happy about.

I have mixed emotions on this. But, yes, I believe it had to be done. Iran has been shouting about the “Great Satan” for years, and they were not to be trusted. I just hope there are not repercussions from sleeper cells. I think all aid to foreign countries should be cut in half, given to Israel with the caveats to do the light work.
