True there will be less of a reserve and a little less flexibility. But I'm not sure that more carriers are the best place to put the money. That's what some said about going down to 10 Army divisions in the 90s. The army divisions went from 17 to 10, a much larger cut, and a cut that has more effect on us now. I'm not really campaigning for a reduction in the size of the carrier force, just pointing out that it isn't really unreasonable. At the time I thought the cut from 17 to 10 army divisions was a bit to big, although I wasn't against making some cut. 17 divisions would cost too much, but if we had say 12 now instead of 10 the extra two divisions might be useful.
