Can't believe they're actually buying more of those "Little Crappy Ships". What a terrible waste of taxpayer money. |

I think the program's just running on inertia right now. There were a few ships still under construction. |

Seriously, someone needs to be Court-martialed over this ongoing boondoggle. |

I think keel-hauling under a very poorly maintained vessel would be more appropriate, in order to keep that naval tradition alive. |

@Thresher: what did the poor boat do to deserve that?  |

Uh Oh! It just broke down & had to be towed back to the shipyard for repairs. |
