U.S. sub, surface ship collide...
 

A US Navy submarine and an American amphibious ship have collided in the
Strait of Hormuz.

The stretch of water is between Iran and the Arabian peninsula.

According to the navy's Bahrain-based 5th Fleet, the USS Hartford
submarine was submerged before the crash.

Fifteen soldiers aboard the Hartford were slightly injured but able to
return to duty.

No injuries were reported on the amphibious ship, the USS New Orleans.

But the ship suffered a ruptured fuel tank, which resulted in an oil
spill of approximately 25,000 gallons of diesel.

The damage to both vessels is still being evaluated.

Both ships are currently operating under their own power. The crash is
currently under investigation.

The Navy said both ships were on regularly scheduled deployments to the
region and conducting security operations.

Officials said the collision happened about 1am local time.

"And this is the forward-looking sonar, the instrument that lets you
know if there is a submerged sub in the water ahead of you..."

Maybe our naval ships would be better "captained" by ferry boat
operators, who are usually sharp enough to pay attention to where they
are going.

Are you maintaining that naval warships steam about blindly, and that
there are not instruments on the bridge that detect other ships,
whether surface or subsurface?


Nope. I am maintaining that the comment you made sounds like one of an
idiot.

Eisboch


What rationalization would you offer up for two U.S. warships smacking
into each other? I attributed it to asleep at the wheel.

Indeed, that has to be one of the dumbest statements I've ever heard

he really DOES know about blue water boating!!!

Fortunately, there is little chance of Herring being recalled unless...

1. The United States wants to lose another war...or...

2. The army needs a fragging dummy.



Fragging, in case the term never made it north, was a word used to
describe the deliberate shooting by U.S. troops in Vietnam of their
incompetent ossifers.

A US Navy submarine and an American amphibious ship have collided
in
the
Strait of Hormuz.

The stretch of water is between Iran and the Arabian peninsula.

According to the navy's Bahrain-based 5th Fleet, the USS Hartford
submarine was submerged before the crash.

Fifteen soldiers aboard the Hartford were slightly injured but
able
to
return to duty.

No injuries were reported on the amphibious ship, the USS New
Orleans.

But the ship suffered a ruptured fuel tank, which resulted in an
oil
spill
of approximately 25,000 gallons of diesel.

The damage to both vessels is still being evaluated.

Both ships are currently operating under their own power. The
crash
is
currently under investigation.

The Navy said both ships were on regularly scheduled deployments
to
the
region and conducting security operations.

Officials said the collision happened about 1am local time.

"And this is the forward-looking sonar, the instrument that lets

know
if there is a submerged sub in the water ahead of you..."

Maybe our naval ships would be better "captained" by ferry boat
operators,
who are usually sharp enough to pay attention to where they are
going.

Was Flatulent Jim back on active duty?

You stated that I smoke pot. Let's see your "facts".

Now, you stated right here in rec.boats that your son drank all of

If my son wants wine (doesn't drink beer..some kind of health kick), he buys
his own.
I have thought about his own small 'bar fridge' ....but more for all his
'healthy food' and drink (orange juice etc.)
He works out at least three times a week at the gym and is a good solid 200
lbs on a 6' 2" frame.
...and yes, I can still compete with him in close combat (in-fighting), but
as far as striking goes..... not so much.

I never said you were "going to fetch". I said that you DID fetch.
But, alas, your credibility just went to zero here. YOU said you had
