It's great that the USS Texas is being preserved. It's a crime that the Big " E " Enterprise CV-6 wasn't preserved as well. I'm sure we will be hearing more about the restoration of the Texas.


Great article.

Given the current condition of the Texas, I vote April Fools.

Steve, you are so wrong. I have it on good authority that the reactivation of the big guns on the Texas are a new form of anesthesia to be used on dental and hospital patients needing emergency surgery.


Some people's kids.

You can't jam a 12 inch projo. Nor can you shoot it down.

My thoughts on this.

I know we have discussed this before and I know Mr. Trump have "Spoken" of release(forgot the correct word) Missouri or was it New Jersey.

So when I saw the word Texas I was like.. OK and I who thought it was Missouri or New Jersey they had planned to release again.

So I'm mostly with Steve on this..smells like April Fool

No way Jim ... I thought you English men had dry humor, but this goes way beyond your normal level of humor

You may fool some of us, but not me and Steve

April fool

You have been onboard her and Steve too. Do you actually think this could happen?

Not me ... No siree.

Nice try
