Capitaine Vengeur Posted June 14, 2015 Posted June 14, 2015 -- Miami is the first submarine and nuclear-powered ship to be lost in a U.S. naval shipyard, and the second warship lost in a U.S. naval shipyard after the loss of the steam frigate Merrimack in 1861. [Wiki] Some warships in History met a more humiliating way to see their otherwise honorable service ending in advance. But not that many. At least in this occasion, it happened without loss of life. Anyway, USS Miami should have deserved a better fate. Quote
Milktrout Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 A $700 million screw up by one person. It's nice to know that no matter what most of us do in our lives we can never fuck up that badly. Quote

If I ran the country that guy would have been ordered tied to a fence post and flogged till he passed out. But thankfully I don't run things... Quote
+JediMaster Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Hey, I've been on that ship! No, not the USS Miami (I was never there during Fleet Week when it was), I mean the Enchantment of the Seas. Quote

It's nice to know that no matter what most of us do in our lives we can never fuck up that badly. he didn't exactly screw up - he set the fire intentionally. It was deliberate sabotage. he should be dead. Quote
