| 1438405 | 2017-08-21 06:28:00 | Yeah you got to wonder how they are going to evade anti ship missiles and torpedos if they cant get out of the way of a cargo ship. | prefect (6291) | ||

| 1438409 | 2017-08-21 22:26:00 | The problem is being solved. All foreign vessels (or any domestic vessels using the metric system) will be required to be fenced with a wall of inflated balloon-like fenders. These fenders to be inflated with hot air supplied by Trump - this will repel anything more than adequately. | R2x1 (4628) | ||
| 1438410 | 2017-08-21 23:56:00 | Interesting to see where the blame is levied ... the warship was hit on her port side which means she must have been on the tanker's starboard side. Basically the tanker had to give way to the warship, and the principle of relative bearing would have shown the tanker it was on a collision course. So both legal give way rules and seamanship lay the blame with the tanker. Unless there are some local rules of crowded sea lanes or displacement that apply. And no justification for a heartless dismissal of "that's too bad" by the Commander-in-Chief. |

| 1438412 | 2017-08-22 00:36:00 | Chief of Naval Operations Orders Global 'Operational Pause' (freebeacon.com) It's time to return to the USA and to replace them with genuine 'Made in USA' parts. :D |

| 1438413 | 2017-08-22 22:06:00 | they are now blaming the electronic steering . perhaps it was the guys behind the steering wheel ? Do they no longer have anyone on lookout anymore , and perhaps steer well clear of tankers ? |
