The USS Port Royal was grounded a week or so ago within sight of the Honolulu Airport.
The Navy has extensively charted the waters around Hawaii and especially those around Pearl Harbor. There is no excuse for any US Man-of-War to run aground. This falls squarely on the shoulders of the Commanding Officer. This man has been relieved of command pending an investigation.
That is the difference between the Navy and the other Armed Services. When a naval officer screws up the Navy nips it in the bud quick. The other services investigate first and in the meantime, the officer can screw up again.
GO NAVY!
