"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
I think the Midway and the Coral Sea were the last two carriers in the US Navy to have Phantom IIs fly from them. I'm assuming those were eventually replaced with F/A-18s since that class of ship wasn't supposed to be able to handle F-14s.
Did they have any A-4s, A-7s or F-8s on hand? I would have thought they'd have been used all on the Midway at some point.

Something wicked this way comes.
Open, locks,
Whoever knocks.
