SourKraut posted:While there’s some truth here, the US absolutely built a fuckton of ships during the active war years. The US entered WWII with eight carriers and left WWII with 99 carriers of every type, plus a number of fast battleships (some of which were laid down in 1939-1940), and hundreds of frigates, destroyers, light cruisers, heavy cruisers, etc. And a lot of submarines. The US Navy added something like 1,100-1,200 combat vessels between 1941-1945. Yes, by directly controlling industry and centrally organizing war production in an unprecedented expansion of the state. Do you see why that's impossible now?

It was mostly a matter of pointing out that the US wasn’t spending all of the 1930s developing what became its wartime navy.

I'm actually curious how the US went back to privatized poo poo after the war, after effectively nationlizing huge sections of the economy did they just be like "thnks for the ships, you can go back to building merchant stuff" or whatever?

The private sector went along with it because they were provided sweet, sweet contracts and payouts.

SourKraut posted:Oh yeah, I 100% agree it’s unlikely/improbable now. They were. It was kind of a big deal. Warships after Washington: The Development of Five Major Fleers 1922-1930 The Washington Treaty of 1922, designed to head off a potentially dangerous arms race between the major naval powers, agreed to legally binding limits on the numbers and sizes of the principal warship types. In doing so, it introduced a new constraint into naval architecture and sponsored many ingenious attempts to maximise the power of ships built within those restrictions. It effectively banned the construction of new battleships for a decade, but threw greater emphasis on large cruisers.rn This much is broadly understood by anyone with an interest in warships, but both the wider context of the treaty and the detail ramifications of its provisions are little understood. The approach of this book is novel in combining coverage of the political and strategic background of the treaty – and the subsequent London Treaty of 1930 – with analysis of exactly how the navies of Britain, the USA, Japan, France and Italy responded, in terms of the types of warships they built and the precise characteristics of those designs. This was not just a matter of capital ships and cruisers, but also influenced the development of super-destroyers and large submarines.rn Now for the first time warship enthusiasts and historians can understand fully the rationale behind much of inter-war naval procurement. The Washington Treaty was a watershed, and this book provides an important insight into its full significance. Warships After London: The End of the Treaty Era in the Five Major Fleets, 1930–1936 The Washington Treaty of February 1922 put a cap on the construction of capital ships and aircraft carriers while failing to impose similar restraints on ‘auxiliary’ vessels or submarines. This led to a competition in ‘treaty cruisers’ – ships of the maximum 10,000-ton displacement allowed, armed with multiple 8in guns – and in submarines, many of which were designed for long range and high speed on the surface. During the 1920s the French and the Japanese took particular advantage of the absence of quantitative or qualitative limits for these vessels to compensate for their inferiority in capital ships. Thus, as the ten-year review of Washington approached, Britain and the United States attempted to extend the ratios agreed in 1922 to the newly-defined categories of cruisers, destroyers and submarines. The negotiations which resulted in the Treaty of London of April 1930 were fraught, and the agreement proved controversial, particularly in Japan. Warships After London examines warship developments in the five major navies during the period 1930–1936. Long-term plans were disrupted, and new construction had to be reviewed in the light of the new treaty regulations. The imposition of new quantitative limits for cruisers, destroyers and submarines led to new, often smaller designs, and a need to balance unit size against overall numbers within each of the categories. As ships produced under these restrictions were the newest available when war broke out in 1939, this book is a major contribution to understanding the nature of the navies involved. Its value is enhanced by well-chosen photographs and by the author’s specially-prepared line drawings showing the overall layout, armament, protection and propulsion of the ships laid down during the period.

Al! posted:i dont think i had a single unit on the korean war in all of my years in public school, no And you hardly see any media about it outside of Korea itself. IIRC the last major movie production about the Korean war was in the 70s, funded by a religious cult from Korea. You go from WW2 where were the awesome winners, and Vietnam where they kind of have to cover it to get ahead of any inconvenient narratives, but Korea is a failed war that they can safely just tuck away.

Presumably part of it is because the hero general pulled off an all time amphibious attack then absolutely hosed up and got relieved of command before he could start nuclear Armageddon

gently caress this dumb court system and gently caress California. On the LA court website: - She owes us nothing. - We owe her $300 Status: Judgment - contested She flagrantly violates the law, retaliates repeatedly against us, fucks us out of our goddamn security deposit, and the judge is like "lol you owe her money." What the gently caress. All landlords can go to hell. I am confused by the contested judgement.

FlapYoJacks posted:gently caress this dumb court system and gently caress California. I think the thread was figuring on that happening after the judge gave her a second chance to 'submit evidence'. Here's hoping that's just the 'default' judgement and the judge will actually input the real one at the end of two weeks.
