Obligatory, lol. I've probably put in 10 on my own...
I can't find one of Homer on or referring to any nuke aircraft carriers....so allow me interject yours truly.
I spent 3 years on USS Enterprise CVAN [later CVA] 65. As ultimate front line inter-ocean deployable, the equivalent first responders to all manner of events. That created morale boosters and reducers at nearly same rate. But as a ship, she astounds me more than 40 years later. The 4 reactors did everything, smoothly, dependably, at instant required. Unlimited power under watchful eyes of nuclear-trained engineering officers and men. I'd warrant, there were no Homer Simpsons.
Over time, I'd been assigned to 5 additional carriers; all were fine, but none performed like Enterprise.
