20+ year careers, where destroyed in minutes.
Captian, XO, and a few others downstairs.
Regardless of fault, they will NEVER have Command again or ever.
Bet suicide has crossed their minds.

Now if this had been a ship under an Iranian flag...
Seriously, in those waters - this kind of accident?

@JohnMcLane2008 Well said I was thinking exactly the same.. It is the strait of Hormuz after all eh.. If it had of been an Iranian ship it wouldn't have been an accident.. Even the Japanese collision is very suspicious eh

The strait of Hormuz is 30 fucking miles wide at its narrowest point.
That's 50 kilometers! And these two retards at the helm can't manage to keep out of each others way.

Latest news, Iranian Guard hijacked a Japanese oil tanker and deliberately rammed an American destroyer. The US is now preparing to retaliate against this unprovoked attack.
Meanwhile locals from an unknown area said they saw a big white UFO with wording on the side of it that resembled what could only be described as US ARMY.
Now over to Tracy who is currently reporting on some very unusual weather and seismic activity over in Japan.
