“Here is the issue. There are a lot of dead Marines out there whose names could go on anything that appears to be an amphibious ship,” Worthington said. We think fallen Marines and perhaps supporting sailors should go on fantails before random victims."

I'd be okay with that as long as the ship was a large vacuum cleaner.
