BIL was Army officer who worked out of Norfolk, and once told me if these Navy Captains allow so much as a scratch in the paint they are in big trouble.

So how could a boat as big as a freighter get within half a mile of a carrier?

My gut feeling is there is another, complete side to this story we haven’t seen. Give it a day or two. It might even be a hoax and posted to see how many of us would look at it. Click bait? AI generated? It remains to be seen.

Story is running on all the mainstream news sites, but is sketchy. All they seem worried about is the carrier reactors are intact and unharmed and few injured. The cargo ship limped off somewhere.

Location was near highly congested entrance to Suez Canal and happened around midnight. Still, I was of the opinion a carrier group was at least a couple dozen ships, and purpose of many of them was to see to it no other ship got anywhere near the carrier. If it turns out you can get a cargo ship that big that close to a carrier, then next time it will be full of explosive intended to sink the carrier.

The US Navy needs to bring back flogging for incidences like this.

I suggest we wait until the OFFICIAL NAVY report is completed before we jump to conclusions. :-)

Apparently, It was a re-supply ship and was supposed to be there to replenish stores for the carrier. but still, OH CRAP!.
