Re: UN Ship Nomenclature

	Personally I think you should move the names down one and name
your SDN's
after secertaries of the UN. ie the Butros-Butros Gali, Coffey
Anan......
	DD's then might be arms inspectors (now you was that Australian
who gave
Iraq such a hard time....) FF's might be aid workers killed in the line
of
duty (no I don't know any of the top of my head). I'll have to think
some
more.
