The name of USS John S. McCain was not obscured during the POTUS visit to Yokosuka on Memorial Day. The Navy is proud of that ship, its crew, its namesake and its heritage.

"All ships remained in normal configuration during the President's visit," said Cmdr. Clay Doss, a spokesman for the Navy's Seventh Fleet.

A U.S. official told ABC News that a tarp seen in a photo included in the Journal report had been placed on the ship's stern as part of "hull maintenance and preservation."

STUPID SHIT A TARP WAS ON THE SHIP FRIDAY BECAUSE ITS UNDER GOING MASSIVE REPAIRS

Officials acknowledged that on Friday a tarp had been placed on the destroyer’s stern where the ship’s name is located, but that it was ordered removed the following day by base commanders who had decided that all the Navy ships in Yokosuka should adhere to Navy regulations. Trump visited the base on Monday and gave a speech to sailors aboard the USS Wasp, a large amphibious assault ship.

“All ships remained in normal configuration during the President’s visit,” said Cmdr. Clay Doss, a spokesman for the Navy’s Seventh Fleet.

A U.S. official told ABC News that a tarp seen in a photo included in the Journal report had been placed on the ship’s stern as part of “hull maintenance and preservation.” A Navy official explained that a barge seen in the photo was not there to obstruct the destroyer’s name, but is always alongside it to remove its wastewater.

The destroyer has been undergoing a massive repair effort at the base in Japan following a deadly collision in August 2017 in the harbor in Singapore that killed 10 sailors.

Prove this WSJ article wrong.

The White House wanted the U.S. Navy to move “out of sight” the warship USS John S. McCain ahead of President Trump’s visit to Japan, according to an email reviewed by The Wall Street Journal."

“Despite preliminary discussions to the contrary, U.S. Navy leaders decided not to cover up the name of the USS John S. McCain, as requested by the White House, prior to President Donald Trump's visit to Japan, U.S. officials told ABC News."

"There was a lower level effort to comply with the request but when leadership became aware they ordered the tarp be taken down," a U.S. Navy official acknowledged to ABC News. "Navy leadership decided the name should not be obscured."

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/us-n...ry?id=63362687

"CBS News senior national security correspondent David Martin reports that a U.S. Indo-Pacific Command official wrote an email to Navy and Air Force officials before Mr. Trump's arrival. It included instructions for the proper landing areas for helicopters and preparations for the USS Wasp, the ship on which the president was to speak.

The official then issued a third instruction: "USS John McCain needs to be out of sight," according to the email, which was first obtained by The Wall Street Journal. The Washington Post and Associated Press also confirmed its existence."
