    Happy April Fools Day to you too.

    What was more unbelievable than the USS Musk was the mention that the USS Constitution (built in 1797) would be disposed of.

    I fell for it at first but what is really funny is that I texted this to some friends this morning that still work at the shipyard here (where I retired from) that is building CVN 80. They couldn't believe it and sent it to upper management. An hour later one of them reported that it was a good April fool joke...

    If I had read the rest of the article I would have realized it....

    The very first thing I thought about was that, like coins, ships are usually named after dead people.

    Thanks for posting !!!!
