Thacker) Organization: University at Buffalo Lines: 23 Approved: military@att.att.com From: v059l49z@ubvmsd.cc.buffalo.edu (Paul C Stacy) I was wondering how long it takes to reload a battleship (or other ships using the armored box launcher the BB's use) with Tomahawks after firing them. Can it be done at sea? Paul "Joe Friday" Stacy (Side note: I'm thinking of becoming a journalism major now that the war has started. Watching the military 'experts' the tv networks use, I can't believe some of what I hear. Some of the info they give for the various weapons get downright outrageous. I can understand it from the orindary reporters, but not the supposed experts. I certainly don't know everything about the military, but I think I could do better than they are. Secondly, since each network seems to have 50 different experts each, they must be raiding VA hospitals to get so many. (-: )
