USNS WASHINGTON CHAMBERS is out to sea, currently broadcasting "Restricted Manoeuvrability" which I take as the DEI promotion version of Restricted Maneuverability. She may be doing UNREP with a USN for out or some at-sea training.
If Planefags spot Ospreys and/or Super Cobras then Amphib, Hornets mean a Bird Farm.
Gotta say I don't find a USNS to be out there on a Sunday to be a common thing
> hides any rust spots
Didn't hide rust on the three ships I was on, is there a new formula to the paint these days?
