Look at 3:41. You can see how many times he has gone through that book because the pages are worn from being turned over and over. Heartbreaking.

[@PantherActualOfficial]

A Pascagoula native, and former shipyard employee at Ingalls, I can personally attest to the level of commitment Ingalls provides for the Navy. We keep the clock turning 24/7, 365 because freedom never sleeps

Im Navy and when i saw his mother holding his graduation pic. I have mine just like it. It could have been me. Course im only 26 but i couldn't imagine my mother holding my picture like that. RIP all those men/women. We watch a documentary on the Cole in bootcamp now. I was horrified cause i never heard about it until then.

[@ratta_tat]

Do they still do the Cole as a part of the DC/battle stations evo?

[@colinm8200]

@@ratta_tat Yes. I cant go into details for security reasons but yes its like a simulation. Its like the last week of bootcamp.

[@ratta_tat]

@@colinm8200 right. I went through the same one. Just wondering if they still do it. Thanks for the reply

[@ITRIEDEL]

I’m curious what the intelligence had about that attack prior. Because this wasn’t a “seize the opportunity.” This was planned in advanced and likely a solid lead of time. To gather all the HME and load it in a boat and find the ones who are willing to do it.

[@rnyn5235]

My prayers will always be with each brave soldier & their family of the USS Cole.

[@MilitaryVanHalenEnjoyer]

My dad served in the Cole but left before the attack (he had been reassigned).. He was the GSE chief and knew Triplett. He can't speak of it... Where the bomb hit was actually near his old office. Every anniversary he takes out his old navy hat and salutes it. God bless these men and women who sacrificed it all!

[@markbrucker7022]

I was going through basic training at Great Lakes when this tragic event occurred.

[@aamorri1]

What did the command say? I was in Army Basic Training when Pat Tillman died. Our company commander told us. I believe he had served with Tillman in the Rangers. I can tell that my commanding officer did not want to be there. He wanted to be in the fight.

[@brunofernandes2181]

Hello, I was in Djibouti this day with the french commandos. This day we helped our americain brothers. Never forget this tragedy.

[@lowellmorse6723]

I know you don't ever salute a Chief. But I will make an exception.

[@lowellmorse6723]

NEVER GET complicate.

[@acousticnirvana94]

You can salute anyone at any time. When you graduate basic they salute you. When you become a chief, other chiefs salute you. When they bring pearl harbor survivors through an airport, they salute them. Nothing is stopping you.

21 years, I still miss you Rich. ETC Costelow. RIP. All the families are in my Prayers today. Fair Winds and Following Seas Shipmates.

[@CircleWilliams]

The attack on the USS Cole, to more recent Fitzgerald, McCain, and Bonhomme Richard. Medical mass casualty drills are just as important as shipboard damage control. I was in 8th grade when this happened, and 9/11 overshadowed this incident, so it's good to see it be remembered.

[@kampdog]

I served in the Army in the 80's and this broke my heart. God speed sailors.

My ship, USS Gettysburg, was there around a year before that. Bad area to refuel. It was a matter of time before this happened.

[@supertex-mexarizmendez7543]

⚓🐬Fair Winds and Following Seas" Shipmates🐬⚓ and Yes Master Chief, we are trained in Damage Control School that "whoever is the Leader in charge of a group battling damage in real time, they are in charge, it doesn't matter if higher ranked are below that Leader in that group, orders are orders from the leader". Vice versa, "If a Leader can't handle the situation, the second Leader in charge takes over". The saving of Lives is 1st Priority, 2nd is the ship, depending on the damage. Lessons learned are valuable to the next gen Navy. USS Forrestal in 1967 during Vietnam, taught us a hefty lesson in Fire Fighting procedures. 🥀🥀🥀 🕊️🕊️⚓🐬💙🇺🇸💙🐬⚓

[@pinoyfil-amsimpleliving6951]

How come we didn’t declare war on the perpetrators of this attack.

[@ITRIEDEL]

We did. War on terrorism

[@natez9059]

We didn't declare war because it happened "over there." We only fought back when 9/11 happened on the American Mainland. Sadly, 9/11 might have been prevented if we fought the enemy head on starting in Oct. of 2000.

[@cameltotem8074]

Wouldnt have mattered... not like we declare war and do whatever it takes to win. We’ll fuck around over there wasting our lives and treasure for what, going on two decades now? We haven’t prosecuted a war to win it at any cost since WW2.

interesting that i dont cry because of death but i feel sad. these people cried they must feel sad or sorry. war is such a dirty business, its over outcome of leaders and societies.. some countries are friends and they make war amongst themselves as a common game but this is not real, this is just a theatrical play, wich situations comes to show natural personalities without looking into the details of the brain and simulating brains (thats like changing a person a lot because the computer itself is conscious, so this is the morally acceptable way)

[@robertoromerro]

or rather to say i am not sure if this is real or not but thinking about variouos outcome of humanity i am almost sure this is not real and real the same time, the stories are real, but death is not

Before 9/11 there was 10/12...

[@3dland874]

Why didn’t you open fire

[@williamblake8560]

Unfortunately that wasn't the standard rule at the time of the bombing, but after the attack of the Cole and 911, the US Navy changed its rules about small boats coming along side the ship.

[@hookcheese]

It was mistaken as a garbage boat

[@juanitoortiz6340]

Where the bomb are coming a missile, torpedo,by bump of another boat or whatever pls.spicify the News.???

[@williamblake8560]

It was a boat that parked next to the ship that had a bomb on it. Two terrorists were on the boat.
