Why would people say a WW l Destroyer? Seems to me WW l ended Nov 11th 1918. This ship may be from that ERA but the WAR ended before she was ever started. 1919-1946 is a great run. Just sayin'

The Tracy, being a Clemson class destroyer, was a WW1 Class ship, kinda like the Garand is a WWII rifle, even those made post war.

If I throw a party, I supply the appetizers.
Quality control I calls it.

Alas, sword canes are not legal in every state.

The plot of Plan Nine From Outer Space made more sense than this.

While speaking of produce, I believe a huge amount of produce in America comes from Chile, I do not see Americans starving for lettuce or tomatoes. In my area, Missouri, we have many farms that produce fresh vegetables. It would not impact us all that much.
We have many peach and apple orchards about in our area also, the rest of the produce is readily available fro Idaho, and Kansas and Nebraska would serve us Angus beef and tons of wheat.

We can easily feed the US and a significant part of the whole world if necessary.

Great Lakes, like most every other military post, is selected for the record of high summer temperatures, low winter temperatures, and disagreeable amounts of rainfall, snowfall, or sunshine. That is why they spend so much money building Officer's clubs, NCO clubs and long drill fields. Mix in the toughest NCOs and Viola, you got military nirvana.
Do they still even have clubs?

Silly posturing.

My wife could never get the hang of it. So I bought her an electric one.My preferred is a plain old "waiters corkscrew." About $6 to $12 for decent ones.
Something along these lines:
Easy to use, compact, not out a lot of money if it gets lost or "borrowed."

No sidewalks around here.

Yes I know that, but I can't remember the last time I got a busy signal which is my point! I don't know anyone with a land line that doesn't have voice mail!
All I have is an answering machine. It will not put you into voice mail if I'm on the line.

Rats! We just bought a new opener.

Then why apply such a caustic observation in the first place. Since you have no clue the circumstances.
It was not, in my opinion caustic. It was simply an observation. I think two men who are being watched on TV by millions of Americans and are representing the corps should be as absolutely perfect as possible. I stand by that.

Remarkably long lives for many of them.
Sadly short for others

For those who advocate a shotgun for home defense, this is not a bad concept. One reason I don't favor a scattergun or rifle for close in work is the length. Moving around in low light with furniture and doorways and the possibility the bad guy could grab your long gun in close quarters makes a pistol more practical for me.
But this thing is short enough to be used in close quarters and scattery enough to be used by someone who is not a crack shot. I think it has a niche.
