Okay, so I may have missed some of the context, but I was surprised to read about it in the first place. Either it was just political rhetoric at the time of the original debate, or he changed his mind and/or values.

And I don't know what this ship was.

Yes that is correct.

U.S.S. Franklin (CV-13) of the Essex Class Carriers (Short Hull)

Originally nicknamed, "Big Ben" because named after Benjamin Franklin It earned the nickname, "The Ship that wouldn't Die" from the March 19th, 1945 attack on her by a lone Japanese plane 50 miles off the Japanese Homeland Islands. She took two semi-armoring piercing bombs that caused massive damage to her. She lost 724 of her crew and 265 more were wounded but she was saved by the heroics of by 400 members of her crew. She had the highest causality count of any US Navy ship in the war. She was heavily damaged but she was still afloat and made it back to stateside for repair but was never used again along with one of her sister ship Bunker Hill . Thus the nickname, "The Ship that wouldn't Die"

I have not played Okami. Video games are not my cup of tea.

I think my sister has that game and she plays as well. Otherwise, I don't really play it but rather watch people play it. Who here owns more than one game system?
