The Bataan has a 600 bed hospital? DAMN, those marines get all the good toys......damned seagoing bellhops.

For a ship that had gptten no orders, it sounds like they've been damned busy.
Actually the Bataan is a smaller version of an Navy aircraft carrier.

It has the capability to take care of 600 wounded/injured people.

Typical jarheads, put them on a boat and they'll do anything to get back on land.
