Rumor going around saying CW is coming back to the Navy. Reason being during time of distress.

A year or two ago, the Navy announced it was going back to HF for inter-battlegroup communications instead of using satellite. This was based on economy. CW was not

So it's a partial victory for "traditionalists." (and common-sense folks)
