[QUOTE]Originally posted by Raw Cadet: [QB] Like the Mighty Monkey of Mim, I, too, believe that the first American aircraft carrier was "registered" as CV-1. If that is true, and we both knew that (I am assuming that he, like I, is not a naval history buff), one might hope the "average" United States Navy captain would know it, too. I am surprised that the 1305-E registry of "Yamato," wherein it would signify that she is the sixth ship to bear the name, is not more popular, given some fans view of Starfleet. Since some seem to think that Starfleet is little more than a twentieth century navy operating in space, one might believe certain fans would already be working on the six-part crossover book series about ships named after a large and powerful twentieth century battleship: Part 1--The first "Yamato" (what Starfleet built once "Enterprise" proved so whimpy) Part 2--The Dreadnaught "Yamato" (sister to the "Entente) Part 3--The Excelsior Class "Yamato" (commanded by that Indian captain in "Star Trek IV," who lost the "Yorktown") Part 4--The Ambassador Class "Yamato" ("persuaded" the Klingons to become allies) Part 5--The Prometheus Class "Yamato" (spied on the Romulans during their quiet period, and confirmed the 5xxxx registry number since it came before . . . ) Part 6--The Galaxy Class "Yamato" (we all know Captain Donald Varley would come alive on paper) Personally, when the producers screw up, but there was an effort to make it right originally (Mike Okuda tried to correct the Yamato's registry number the first time), I am willing to give them a second chance. Thus, I accept the 7xxxx number. [/QB][/QUOTE]
