USS America

CV-##

I was serving with the Canadian army battle group in Somalia in 1992. My platoon was moving up towards Belet Uen to join the battalion. As I was the battalion mortar platoon, I had the only indirect fire support available for 200 miles. At one point I looked up and saw what I think was an Intruder from the USS America. Right there I knew that if we really got into trouble I could get out of it with help from that winged friend. At times I haven't got much use for Americans but that day I couldn't complain. Thanks.
