So we followed the link and found the recurrence of this little gem:
Don’t sequester the common defense
By REP. TOM PRICE and REP. VICKY HARTZLER | 7/22/12 9:16 PM EDT….the smallest Navy since 1915….
An apt comparison because, as we all know, the world and the role and capabilities of the U.S. Navy hasn’t changed in almost a century.
If we could just build the Navy back up to thirty-nine battleships, seven coastal monitors, and three hundred fifty patrol craft we should be okay.
