the US warships, (kinda funny, warships being sent to save lives!!) are in the process of getting there.

You have to remember that these ships are at dock and some are being fitted, fixed and serviced.

We have to make sure that the ships can do the job, there are sailors to assign to the vessels and supplies to be loaded on board.


There are major logistical factors that must be tended to before a rescue mission can be sent.

The people in the affected areas will tolerate nothing less than 100%.

I am really sorry that people are suffering down there. BUT I AM REALLY SADDENED BY THE FACT THAT WE DO NOT HAVE ANY MORE PATIENCE.

The Bataan is on station in the Gulf at the moment and there is a hospital ship at dock, I do not remember where and another ship was sent from it's home port in virginia just today.

The commander of the Bataan is a woman....
