  1. Total loss. No way this is rebuilt, salvaged, or saved. Was not in the navy but i have a question. I have seen pictures and there are other ships tied up pretty close. Why were they not immediately moved? Seems to be the prudent thing to do.

  2. Was this an accident or did some dirtbag set the fire?

  4. On Tuesday 14 July 2020, Iran Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Quds Force Commander, Major General Qaani said,

    "What has happened in the US today, particularly the warship incident, is a result of the US government’s action, behavior, and crimes - - - was carried out by an American 'insider group' in response to US regime's crimes.

    This incident that was a response to your crimes has taken place by your own elements. God would punish you with your own hands."

    Could Persians have sabotaged our ship, or is that just talk?

  5. My bet is (and if it's true will never be revealed) is that some civilian union guy, hired to meet a quota, working for some company that got the contract because it's owned by some politician' brother in law, screwed up, started the fire and just ran, along with all the other union workers. By the time the skeleton Navy crew knew what was going on, it was too late.
