Can you imagine trusting today’s 19-20 year olds with doing what’s necessary to keep everyone safe?
Yes, I can. Have very personal reasons for believing that, too. I don't think you realize the average age of a sailor in a current Carrier Strike Group.

I grant that the British projected force, I should have stipulated that they never did so to the degree the US Navy did from 1943-1945 or against opponents as potent as the US took on in WW2.

The vast majority of technological advances can be traced back to military initiatives. #fact
