Bracing for Sally…
Ok, guys,
Normally I post 2-3 articles MTTF, and a Warship Wednesday on, well, Wednesday. However, I have Tropical Storm/Hurrican Sally knocking on my door so posting may be sparse later this week depending on power and/or internet connection.
If so, till we meet again!

Stay safe out there!
Did she (USS Vincennes) make it? Stay safe yourself.
Here on the Eastern seaboard in Hampton Roads we always keep a weather eye out. When I lived on and was stationed Dam Neck VA, you never knew what would was up from the graveyard of the Atlantic.
Stay safe!
