lightpole posted:Stop changing ur name u dum I've heard that first is a slightly less overwhelming job out there bc more of the chiefs are not entirely just checked out cruising for the pension. It's becoming a big problem on the east coast that you need a ton of individual vessel gremlin specific knowledge to be first bc many many chieves only know where the coffee pot is.

He'll probably get in trouble for missing some critical PMS while laid up and it's his fault for not setting up redundancy despite nobody else having the qual.

I don’t know the area personally, but looking at the chart and video I don’t think two ships should be in the curve at the same time in the first place.

I don't see tugs. They are maneuvering freely and managed to get themselves in this situation.

Sure, everyone knows Momsen is a more capable surface and air warfare platform and absolutely outclasses an LSD in a blue water duel. If she had gotten her grapnels over though, my money's on Harpers Ferry's 400 marines.

It's a beautiful example of how much more maneuverable a DDG is over most any other ship on the sea. Seriously, though, how do the two of those ships get nose to nose with less than a mile of water between them?

Mr. Nice! posted:It's a beautiful example of how much more maneuverable a DDG is over most any other ship on the sea. They're both following a center-channel track and the navigation part of the piloting team didn't talk to the contact management part of the piloting team before they turned onto that leg. At that point they're in Rule 14 but they want to make starboard-to-starboard arrangements because they're offset that direction already, and neither one wants to cut across the other's bow or make a larger turn than necessary in a constrained channel. Then put LTJG Dumbshit on the bridge-to-bridge for half a mile to try to arrange it, and there you are. Alternative hilarious option: they couldn't agree on passing arrangements because one ship was set up for passing honors to port, and the other was set up for passing honors to starboard Cerekk fucked around with this message at 15:53 on Dec 1, 2022 |

I'm not familiar with exactly what happened, but my gut tells me that HFY was conducting a harbor nav drill package and lost track of the fact that they were set down on the reds. MOM was most likely watching from afar but assumed HFY was going to recover and head back to the outbound side and didn't realize that was a bad assumption (because of mixture of HFY incompetence and poor maneuverability of LSDs) until too late.
