The modern
super-carrier is widely referred to as a
"city at sea."
With between 5,000 and 6,000 people
working, relaxing, eating
and sleeping onboard for months at a
time. This is certainly accurate.
But it's not at all like any city you
would find on dry land.
This is a great gift for that special sailor.
