Figures it was named McCain. Jinxed

Ha Ha....let's make fun of Navy ships in collisions.

Trump inherited a Navy in complete disarray

Of course...no way it can be the current Administration......

Not good! This makes two sophisticated warships colliding with giant tankers in two months, both in Asian waters. Someone is either scrambling transponders or hacking sonar mechanisms. Or EMP weapons using merchant shipping vessels in the as a platform against US warship radar systems. But by who?

BREAKING: U.S. Destroyer Collides With Massive Tanker – 'Search and Rescue Efforts Are Underway' (VIDEO)

The last incident ended with the commander losing his ship and several seamen charged with dereliction of duty...Probably out on deck smoking weed...
So no need to make excuses for weak seamen...That sounds dirty..

That's why the Navy had (do they still?) a zero tolerance policy.......

This dosen't speak well of navy competence. What the H...? Doesn't the navy recognize the need for reliable navigators and commanders any more? Or perhaps all this political correctness has corrupted the quality and competence of modern sailors?

I'm guessing hi-tech and relying on it too much.

A policy never stopped a military person from breaking it..

This should be required reading for all boat drivers. The customer reviews of the book are well worth reading too.

"boat"? It was a sub?

They didn't let women in combat roles then so they would be men storming the beaches on D-Day..

Eh, there is ways around that..

The last crash was due to sailors not doing their duty and the commander lost command of his ship...
