VaBeachGuy 12 Posted August 8, 2003 The USS Ronald Reagan... Click for Spoiler: [ALIGN=center] He is a personal Hero of mine.

My father hated Reagan,but I admired the man.Its wonderful to see him honored by the United States Navy with such a fine vessel. <_< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
