Could a whole Ships crew be silenced?...Maybe

Of course not. Not ever.

Like the old saying goes: Three men can keep a secret if two of them are dead. There's simply no way something that juicy could have remained a secret if a whole ship's crew knew about it. Sorry. Ain't happening.

I dunno for sure what brought down Flight 800 but it wasn't a Navy missile.

[somemoreequalthanothers]

Agreed. I believe it was a shot, but not from one of ours.

Bill Clinton should have started the war on terror the next day, but he didn't have the balls.

One of the many witnesses to 800 was a General in the NYANG
that swore it was a missile that he saw arc up from the surface,,,this guy is a fighter-pilot,,,described a
bluish-white trail,,,

IMHO,,,a MANPADS from the list above brought down 800...
of course one could have been "built for the job" by some folks,,,that said,,,
IMHO,,,it was covered up from the "sheep",,,

Now remember the aircraft that a moozzi crashed into the
ocean ? "SOMEBODY MADE A MISTAKE" with the controls of the aircraft when the pilot left his seat for 3 Min. ??

Klintoon Sez : "It's the economy , Stupid"...

I SEZ : It's ME terrorists...LIER !!!

On 3 July 1988, the USS Vincennes shot down Iran Air Flight 655 (Airbus A300B2) over the Strait of Hormuz, killing all 290 aboard.

On July 17, 1996, at around 8:31 p.m. TWA Flight 800 (Boeing 747-131) exploded in mid-air off Long Island approximately 20 miles southwest of East Hampton, New York, killing all 230 on board.

My theory---TWA was tit-for-tat & Clinton did not want America to know that because he did not have the nerve call out the Iranians on it.

The FIM-92 Stinger is a passive surface-to-air missile, shoulder-fired by a single operator, although officially it requires two. The FIM-92B can attack aircraft at a range of up to 15,700 feet (4800 m) and at altitudes between 600 and 12,500 feet (180 and 3800 m) (citation from Wikipedia).
