  1. Two contrasting approaches to improving crew morale. The Royal Navy gave their sailors a booze ration, the U.S. Navy gave theirs ice cream. I wonder which approach most sailors would prefer?

  2. The Australians have a couple of 30,000 ton carriers complete with ski jumps that they cutely call "helicopter docks". Of course if China gets nasty, they need very few changes to host F-35s. Japan had a similar approach, it's just that they are more honest and don't pretend their carriers are anything else.
