Armada Enquirer 16th May 1921

The Battleship Cuba was commsisioned yesterday into the Armada. We are glad to see that even with the restrictions of the Cleito Treaty the Armada has managed to commission the world's most powerful battleship and there is another one to follow!

With a name like the "Enquirer", I was half-hoping to see tabloid-style articles about stuff that doesn't happen:

"High Admiral a Space Alien, Aide Says"

"Oonishi Manzo Lands on Schedule at Intended Destination"

"India Planning Reverse-Colonization by Invading Britain"

Stuff like that...but this was interesting too.

"High Admiral a Space Alien, Aide Says"


Which one ? :-)
(I could either refer to the admiral, the alien or the aide with that question)

Quoted

"Oonishi Manzo Lands on Schedule at Intended Destination"


Only when there is a war going on.

Quoted

"India Planning Reverse-Colonization by Invading Britain"


Well, if that were to happen, let's hope India's warships have enough range or that there are enough oilers around to get the to Great Brittain...
... or they could borrow a couple of 'Boilers' from Japan.

As for Cuba being the world's most powerful Battleship...
Well, I guess that the guys who create the Armada Enquirer haven't taken a closer look at the Cuba's closest competitors: the Portugal, the Ecuador, and the soon to be finished Panama. :-)
