The Most Important Weapon of All

ABOARD THE USS CARL VINSON
(Reuters) -- The essential ingredient of "beer night" was loaded Friday onto this U.S. aircraft carrier stationed in the northern Arabian Sea for the American bombing raids on Afghanistan, and one could detect a sense of relief all around.
Crates containing almost 10,000 tins of Foster's, Heineken, Coors and Budweiser beers were ferried over from a supply ship, cruising parallel to this immense floating fortress, for the night next week when those aboard can have a beer.
