The Iowa class battleship is Technically still in reserve, the people that have them now are obligated to keep them seaworthy for if they are needed again.

I'm just wondering if the Iowa is feeling lonely, with so few around.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
