Having worked in the engine rooms aboard both a DDG and a Carrier I"d say the main reason is maneuverability. I know several times we had equipment casualities in the engine room prior to entering port and we weren"t allowed to enter til the problem was solved. True many ships would and could be towed through the canal but do a combatant ship like that probably wouldn"t be a good idea. That said I think simple pride also has it"s fair share of reason here also. Good luck to your son. My 6 years, which included the Gulf War, are an experience I will never forget.
