[KingNo155]

" The U.S. Coast Guard will require U.S.-flagged ships sailing around the Horn of Africa to post guards and ship owners to submit anti-piracy security plans " BULLSHOT If this were half true why did our navy evade a pirate attack instead of bringing the fight to the enemy? Does the US Navy need permission from the coast guard or the President?

Once again, from the top, for the wilfully ignorant:

A USNS ship is an UNARMED CIVILIAN vessel in the service of the US Navy.

What did you expect them to do, throw MRE’s at the pirates?
