My intention was, wise-a$$, to reinforce your point that you ain't gonna' launch no damn brigade helicopter assault off a carrier in this war...or from anywhere for that matter.

jj,
time will tell, but i am inclined to disagree with that prediction.
a 3+ battalion lift is certainly within our capability and the right units to perform such a maneuver are in the ao.
if the tactical situation calls for it, imo they will be deployed and they will not be walking in.
there are plenty of launch points other than a carrier, though that is working well for some units.
