Rowan Scarborough’s article in the Washington Times explains that pending budget cuts will force the Navy to shutter four active aircraft carriers:

The U.S. Navy plans to shut down four of its active aircraft carriers in one of the worst-case scenarios presented to Congress by the service since the debate on budget cuts heated up this winter.

The Navy previously announced a delay in deploying the carrier USS Harry Truman to the Middle East, plus a stop in the refueling and overhauling of the nuclear-powered USS Abraham Lincoln and a delay in repairing the USS Theodore Roosevelt.

Rowan discusses the further impact of these devastating cuts with Frank on yesterday’s Secure Freedom Radio show.
