  • Name your Warship.

    Here in San Diego, the Diegans are somewhat pleased that the new LPD is going to be named San Diego. By that token, there have been some people (me included) that are pissed beyond all reason that the new American carrier is going to be named George H.W. Bush. I was hoping for Ranger or Independence.

    Now I read that the Future Carrier (CVF) for the RN is going to be called Queen Elizabeth and Prince of Wales.

    So, if you were put in charge of naming fine warships (I mean large warships, not dinky Frigates) what names would you pick?

    For me:

    Warsprite
    Thunderchild
    Saratoga
    America
    Constellation
    Enterprise
    Hood
    Rodney
    Reprisal
    Franklin
    Midway
    Coral Sea
    Intrepid
    Hornet
    Imperator
    Victory
    Executor ( )
    Eagle
    Ocean
    Hermes
    Indomitable
    Renown
    Wasp
    Fearless
    Thor
    Loki
    Tyr
    Excalibur



    I'm sure you can follow the pattern here. There will be no naming of large warships after mediocre politicians after the Lonestar Revolution!
    Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.

              U.S.S. Doh!

              or

              H.M.S. Doh!

              Works well for the British Navy too.

                At least it's reactor doesn't breach whenever it gets hit.

                  Yes. I've secretly wanted you from the first day you responded pedantically to one of my posts.
