Stress doesnât technically cause shingles, but it can cause your immune system to weaken â and a weakened immune system can put you at risk for shingles.
There are two Carrier Fleet Logistic Support squadrons-one on each coast. VRC-30 is based at Naval Air Station North Island, VRC-40 is based at Naval Station Norfolk. These squadrons send two-plane detachments with each deploying aircraft carrier.
Unlike most recent amphibious assault ships, USS America and her sister USS Tripoli lack well-decks, instead focusing on aviation facilities. When fully operational, America and Tripoli will operate as many as 20 F-35Bs, potentially playing a critical role in what the Navy projects as the future of air superiority. Inevitably, the delivery of USS America rekindles the ongoing conversation over what, precisely, constitutes an aircraft carrier. In the United States, we endure the polite fiction that the USNâs 45,000 ton aircraft carriers are not aircraft carriers, but rather some other kind of creature.
