Can we just start calling it the Japanese Navy again and get it over with?

Careful, that's just one initial away from IJN...

Im fine with calling it the IJN again.
its not like they forgot who won.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Sounds good to me.  I wish they'd have done that 10-15 years ago.

Now that may scare the crap out of the Chinese.

PHILIPPINE SEA (NNS) -- Demonstrating the extraordinary flexibility of a carrier strike group, USS George Washington (CVN 73) kicked off its participation in Annual Exercise (AnnualEx)

Operation AnnualEx? Isn't that the code name for Mirth's girlfriend?

I bet China will ratchet this up for years until it goes beyond where anyone else wants to be involved.

That's what Mirth says, too.

Mr. Bigglesworth

That is how they won the Korean war. This new US tourist as POW thing reeks of some puppetmaster telling the NORKS what to do. Would they do this on their own? Is Korea seen as a better place to display Chinese military resolve than their own mainland?

so now Japans air defense will be based on shotgun warnings?

I think Japan will be realizing that they need to take care of themselves. And I'm confident they can do that if push comes to shove.

hmmm  I think the Japanese have known that for a while and have long taken measures to take care of themselves.
