Carrier Pidgin
Joyful Christian's been keeping a watch on the Spanish carrier, which appears yet to get involved in the actions against Morocco. My personal view is that they're setting up some sort of Pearl Harbor scenario, except with about 12 VSTOL planes instead of hundreds of dive- and torpedo-bombers with fighter escort. And no battleships.
Meanwhile, Mark Butterworth has a very Alexandrian solution to the crisis.
