– National Review – Jerry Hendrix of the Center for a New American Security took to the pages of National Review to advocate the elimination of the aircraft carrier from the arsenal of the U.S. Navy.

Under scrutiny, however, his logic wilts, his understanding of modern warfare is revealed as unrealistic, and his ability to hone in on actual cause-and-effect relationships is questionable.
