Good news, simple freedom loving folks of the US of A. Fox News has confirmed<\/a> that the Navy is building a “mothership for Special Operations Forces in the Middle East”. <\/p>\n

In case anybody wants to know any indepth information Fox News has this to say:<\/p>\n

A market survey posted by the Military Sealift Command in December asked that ship be able to support mine counter measures.
\nSea mines are a concern in the Strait of Hormuz should Iran make good on its threats to close the vital oil passage way, an official told Fox News. <\/p>\n

The ship could be ready in four to five months time, officials said.
\nThe U.S. Special Operations Command has sought a transportable floating base for several years, The Washington Post reports.<\/p>\n

The ‘mothership’ would reportedly help expand the range of commando squads operating from small speedboats in remote coastal areas, The Washington Post reports.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Or, more simply, a group of reporters heard some buzz words and had nothing else to file with their editors this weekend. It would appear that, for those of us without our head up and locked in our ass, that the Navy is going to turn the Ponce over to Special Operations type gigs. I’m unsure where the market surveys fit in.<\/p>\n

By all means, please attempt to deceiver that mess of a report. Sarcastic mockery to the idiots who wrote this turd is clearly encouraged.<\/p>\n

Update:<\/p>\n

More exciting news! According to Haaretz<\/a> the Navy is going to turn one of its ageing “Battleships” into a “mother ship”. Along with most of the rest of you I foolishly thought that the last battleship had been retired with the Missouri. I guess they’ve been hiding one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
