PLEASE STOP and say a prayer................as Search and rescue efforts are underway right now

[princess leah]

When did McCain get a ship named after him?

[BenLurkin]

Hmmm....first the DDG in the Eastern hemisphere and now the this one in the Western hemisphere

[Mears]

Another collision?

.

[grey_whiskers]

I'll pray, but given that the collision is with a merchant ship, and the President is a businessman...I'm suspicious.

After visiting Singapore you gotta scrape those barnacles off somehow...

[Greetings_Puny_Humans]

Maybe it’s an omen that our John McCain is about to be taken out by Trump the businessman.

Or maybe the omen is that we have a lot of diversity hires in the Navy who keep crashing our freaking ships.

[NEWwoman]

Amen... prayers for the safety of the crews and the rescuers.

Deja Vu all over again!

They just relieved one crew of command...

Looks like something systematic is going down.

Second collision of a merchant vessel with a US Navy ship?

I am beginning to wonder if this is a new phase of jihad.

Lots of Muzzies on these crews.

Again?
One would think both military and merchant ships have enough navigational hardware, radar and experience to ensure things like this does not happen.
Once could be a coincidence, twice is suspicious.

I think that Obama so dumbed down the military that this is where we are at.

[pax_et_bonum]

Prayers up.

[Oscar in Batangas]

FOUR major mishaps in 2017???
Someone a whole lot higher up than the captains needs a court martial!

[huldah1776]

I wish we could have our phones buzzed with emergency prayers in situations like these but I know God hears my speechless agony over the loss of any of our military as it is interpreted by the Holy Spirit.

[Rebelbase]

Fark headline for this: “John McCain has been injured in a boating accident”

[tinamina]

Very strange that 2 of our warships were so recently damaged when they collided with merchant vessels. I don’t remember that EVER happening.
What’s wrong with their navigation systems.
