US Navy 1 Pirates 0
And, after they rescued them.... :-)
-- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "DSK" wrote in message ... "Bart Senior" .@. wrote... They should have sunk the boat and chummed up the water. They would have if the boat hadn't stopped. Capt. JG wrote: Definitely. The article says "fired a round across the bow" but not what type of shot... 5"/54? 50cal BMG? 76mm? Any of those could have sunk the boat, but the bigger shell probably would have shredded it & left no evidence. Problem- the pirates had been kidnapping people, I think the Navy wanted to rescue the victims. DSK |
