Talk:Fast combat support ship

I question the validity of the details regarding the Sacramento Class ships. I served aboard the the USS Camden (AOE2) from 1988-1990. At that time there were to my knowledge no civilian personnel on board. This contrasts with the details herein which suggest the ship was staffed by 30 military personnel and 300 civilian merchant marine personnel.

I agree, the Sacramento-class were never USNS - the Supply class were handed over to MSC in the early 2000's, but AOE 1-4 were simply decommissioned. Doc wicket 12:30, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

The details are all sorts of screwy. Doc Wicket, I believe whoever originally wrote the article was referring to the Supply class - but he's still wrong. I'm currently aboard the USNS Supply, and I can tell you there isn't an MSC ship on the fleet that would try crowding 300 CivMars aboard. We've got about 120-130, tops.

And the Sacramento class was decommed because MSC wasn't willing to take 'em. Those ships served their time, and then some. 164.231.65.25 08:37, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

AOE = Auxiliary, Oiler, Explosives?

Is it true AOE stands for "Auxiliary, Oiler, Explosives"? If you can confirm this with some reference, then add them (meaning + reference) to the article, please. --Selcitraxif (talk) 15:48, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

How fast?

How fast does a ship need to be to be an AOE instead of an AOR? The article does not mention speed. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 17:00, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
