Yesterday the USS John McCain crashed into a commercial vessel, there are now 10 sailors missing and probably presumed dead. This is the second accident in 60 days involving crashes between highly advanced US Navy ships and commercial vessels.
How is it that we have the most advanced and well equipped naval force in the world and yet, in short order we have 2 of our newer ships crash into commercial vessels?
Do the navigators think those screens are video games? Do we not have an actual watch on deck? Honestly I don't understand how this can happen.
