HII to Unveil New Patrol Frigate Designs at Pacific 2012 Navy & Maritime Security News at DefenceTalk
This is a great idea! HII needs to do what it can to protect the shipbuilding industry in America, and in fact, we need these ships in the US Navy as the LCS program has simply too many problems right now.
This web page is dedicated to the preservation of maritime history. Take a look at the options listed here and support those Navy musueums by visiting them with your school or family. Have a great Navy day!
Preserving the USS Olympia - a Protected Cruiser
The USS Olympia, which fought in the Spanish American War of 1898 has been preserved and is a valuable piece of US maritime history. Unfortunately, Olympia needs $10-15 million in repairs to keep her a viable museum for years to come. She has not been out of water for approximately 40 years. If you have connections or resources to help, please contact me at 612-599-1935 or bdskon@fedex.com.

U.S. keeping 11 aircraft carriers, Panetta says - Navy News News from Afghanistan & Iraq - Navy Times
Makes me wonder if Panetta puts this out there because he wants to keep the carriers. I find it hard to believe that Obama wants to keep 11.
Now he's forced to keep them, or get rid of the SECDEF.
