Hey Ka'lan, this should be a hard job, isn't it?
I'm not North American, and all this US Navy power makes me scared. But i think that in this kind of world that we're living, all of us have the right to defense. And the US has the right too.
The last years that we're living show clearly that we MUST defense from a more scary menace than a regular army.
I hate thinking about childs, women and men all over the world living with fear... fear to take the Tube, the bus, fear to enter a building... fear to live. :(
So, have good luck Ka'lan and take care of you and yours companions.
Good sailing Ka'lan.
