USS Ronald Reagan is a nuclear powered super carrier, and CVN 97 stands for nuclear propulsion. And H just dropped his pants - reads like comms to me! u/LoneWulf
Not knowing when this video was posted make this a bit difficult to associate it with current events. Just some things that popped out at me:
"Ronald Reagan is the first aircraft carrier and the first nuclear-powered warship, of any type, to be named in honor of a living former president."
This is unusual, if I'm not mistaken. They're usually named after someone who is deceased, not living.
2021
On 26 June 2021, Ronald Reagan was deployed to the Middle East to help with the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan.
2022
In late May 2022, Ronald Reagan was relieved by USS Abraham Lincoln
"Abe"
Ship's seal
The design of Ronald Reagan's seal was created entirely by her plankowner crew with historical assistance provided by staff members at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library foundation. The red border that rings the ship's seal is similar to the distinctive red rim that defines the White House china designed for the Reagans during their White House years. Four gold stars represent President Reagan's 40th presidency and his four pillars of freedom: individual liberty, economic opportunity, global democracy, and national pride. "Peace through Strength" was a recurring theme of the President's life in public service. The aircraft carrier is positioned by the West Coast, representing President Reagan's two terms as Governor of California and the ship's homeport in the Pacific Fleet. The three aircraft with their patriotic contrails symbolize the three major military operations the President directed during his tenure: Operation Urgent Fury (Grenada/1983), Operation El Dorado Canyon (Libya/1986), and Operation Praying Mantis (Iran/1988). The view of the globe signifies the President's vision of global democracy, and the center is the United States representing the country's national pride. Colors of red, white, and blue dominate the seal reflecting the American flag.
I came here to point this out too. This is after he was out of rehab and did his TV rounds after Pop announced his run. New and improved chompers and all…

There's a patch on Hunter's right shoulder for a Carrier Strike Group ("CARSTRGRU" is all that I can see of it.)

I think it's a 7

interesting, brb
hmm Hunter wasn't on that ship, he was Navy Reserve and he was a public affairs officer and he was in from 2013/14 So that was not his patch.
Interesting.
u/Pmb1903, can you tell me more about where you saw this video?
I found it on TT. I scroll through every now and then. And I come across things like this and the posts I've made about AOC the last couple days.
It was probably a jacket that he or his father was presented with on some occasion.
