Many of my friends are from USA. They have adopted the "have a party before x-mas with the boys" Get a good meal and some drinks and have fun.. 10-15 every year. It is a mix of USA and Europe.. Think we had a french dude as well once.. Just a nice evening out. And from what was on the news. Some people serving on that boat already had friends in Oslo .. and had.. a good time

Point is, at lest my generation know well that we owe our freedom to USA. And that has to be respected. You can complain about USA how much you like. But still thousands young men and women died in Europe. Each one is a life that fought another nations war. Because it was right. That can never be repaid. But we can remember.

Back around 1972 or so, we escorted the Enterprise to Pearl Harbor. You don't really appreciate how large carriers are at sea until you dock next to one. Don't know what their crew complement was, around 5,000 or so I think. It took forever for their crew to walk the gang plank to enjoy liberty - a steady stream of hormone-driven young guys looking to spend some money at the local bars.

I understand your sentiment. However, in recent history the US catrier fleet is typically named after former presidents. In fact, all but one, are named after politicians with the only exception being the Enterprise. That said, there is a planned Ford class carrier that is to be named after Doris Miller, who went full send baddass during Pearl Harbor.
