USS Intrepid

Finally, a reason to visit New York City. A reason to visit New England, even.

What I want to know is when we started, and when we stopped, giving good names to our ships. Intrepid is a good name. City of Corpus Christi is not. Dauntless is a good name; Philadelphia is not. Dreadnaught is an excellent name; USS Senator William P. Whiteman really isn’t.
