Middle initial

Note that the "S" in "Harry S Truman" is not an initial and should not have a period; President Truman's middle name was in fact "S".— Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.94.87.40 (talk) 12:48, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

I've always thought the same thing, but see the subsection under Harry S. Truman's middle initial. JordeeBec 17:23, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

CVN-75

What does CVN-75 mean?--TheEgyptian 11:01, 5 June 2007 (UTC)


That's standard nomenclature for United States Navy warships. CVN= Fixed- wing aircraft carrier, nuclear powered. The 75 is the hull number, based on all ships of the type that have been authorized for construction (not to be confused with the number actually built). Thus, USS Harry S Truman is the 75th aircraft carrier authorized by Congress. 66.134.55.235 02:13, 24 June 2007 (UTC)Tspencer227


"On November 5, 2007 the Harry S Truman left Norfolk for its seven month Mediterranean deployment". I believe that the location of this deployment should not be public information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.1.207.21 (talk) 22:52, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Why not? Everyone and their brother knows that the Truman is based out of Norfolk, and everyone knows that Norfolk ships deploy to the Med, so what's the complaint? It's usually public knowledge the day they pull out and pull in because it's all over Hampton Roads radio stations and signs are all over NOB.24.94.86.219 (talk) 02:24, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

There should be NO Compliant. The deployment of US Surface ships is common knowledge. However the Navy tries to keep the whereabouts of its submarines secret, as they are sometimes on Independent Operations. Besides It's kinda hard to hide a 1000'+ Long 200'+ wide Aircraft Carrier from view.--Subman758 (talk) 18:27, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Keel Laid as USS United States

As one can see from the photo of the Mail Cover I added, that is proof the the Ships Keel was laid as USS United States. I feel somewhat Vindicated now.

This is a cover for the Keel Laying of CVN-75 proving her keel was laid as USS United States.
