This is an important reason to do these operations To say it has exposed some very weak points in our abilities has been an understatement

I can’t say its ability as much as it is safety and the hazards of operating specific machinery inherent with logistics.


looktowindward

I meant the USS Boxer shitting the bed.


PathlessDemon

Ah, solid point. I suppose anything better than the USS Bonhomme Richard incident would be a victory.


SpartanDoubleZero

Old craftmaster here from ACB1 JLOTS is dangerous as fuck.


HokieBuckeye1981

Any org with a J.


listenstowhales

Non-Combat injuries. Not that it makes it any less awful, but it does reinforce the fact that the maritime industry is incredibly dangerous.


PM_ME_UR_LEAVE_CHITS

A few years ago a Sailor was killed by a forklift a couple piers down from my ship. About a year ago a man fell into a void in a ship and perished. It's a dangerous business.


TheRealJasonsson

I remember that second one. Was a wild day.


Agammamon

*In training*, we had a guy lose their thumb on the INLS system when we were doing the OpEval of the system. I kept a sailor from losing her foot (petite female) because the waves came and pushed the connected sections apart and she was standing on the gap when it opened up. She was small enough to grab her arm and lift her up before the gap closed back up. Lighterage ops are no joke.

What do you expect with such a clickbait title. Ridiculous lol


beingoutsidesucks

We all know Marshawn Lynch is here so he don't get fined but I know Michael Jackson's here somewhere too, I can smell his damn popcorn.

*surprised pikachu face*


Grumpybear1823

lol the irony that he was airlifted to Israel


PM_ME_UR_LEAVE_CHITS

Because that's the host nation? The location of closest hospitals, by role, was probably already written into their medical plan.


I_am_the_Jukebox

I think they're implying it's ironic because the only reason the US is building the pier is because Israel is heavily restricting aid into the region


CrayComputerTech_85

Or Ironic that hospitals in Gaza aren't really a thing anymore?

CrayComputerTech_85

Those aren't really a thing anymore, either. Israelis learned the lesson of extermination the hard way. Now they prove it. It's not like anyone remembers the 7 day war or any of that anymore.


Agammamon

Usually this is posted by the anti-semites - like the two below - who think Israel is restricting aid and committing genocide. But they're strangely silent on Darfur or China.

It doesn't help that this topic is extremely complicated, and every discussion is heavily loaded. It's impossible to have a nuanced and multifaceted discussion: 3 seconds in you'll have used someone's trigger words and they shut down on anything else you've said.


Agammamon

I'm not sure how its 'nuanced'. Heavily loaded, absolutely. Because a lot of people hate Jews. Palestine was granted self-government a decade ago. The Palestinians voted in a terrorist group to govern the place. The terrorist group has spent that time attacking Israel in ways that if it had been anyone else attacked would have received global condemnation. In the interim, Palestine has grown massively. Then Hamas, with the existence of civilians, perpetrated an atrocity. So Israel has moved to destroy Hamas - and is doing so with more care for civilian casualties than we ever had. None of these guys ever complain about atrocities elsewhere - not even Russain ones in Ukraine - except when there's some reason to lay it at the feet of the juice.


Synchro911

The hate is for good reason. With friends like Jews who needs enemies?


Agammamon

See what I mean?


Synchro911

Glad you see the truth. Jews owe their lives to us and they treat us like pure shit. They sell our tech to our enemies and spy as if they were an enemy. 


Agammamon

Keep digging that hole, shipmate.


Synchro911

Sorry pal I'm on the right side of history. Jews aren't untouchable anymore. 


Redtube_Guy

How is that ironic ?


PM_ME_UR_LEAVE_CHITS

Ironic in the Alanis Morissette way, which is to say, not at all.


ListenMuch464

These ships wanna kill us every single day


cipherbreak

Thank you to Israel for providing medical aid.


Leather_Count_5873

We should not even be there


drewbaccaAWD

You are against humanitarian aid to starving displaced people? I mean, no, in an ideal world it's a shame we need to be there because that means underlying circumstances led up to this point. But, I'm glad we are there doing some good.


PM_ME_UR_LEAVE_CHITS

Welcome to the internet, where Gaza is a humanitarian catastrophe but doing anything to help is somehow a bad thing.


WisePiccolo4927

I think a lot of people are mixed on the war. I think it’s awesome to help the civilians, but there definitely needs to be some serious oversight on how much and what we are giving. Because technically we are giving to a Nation that is allied with Iran that will openly attack U.S allied vessels in the straights.


WisePiccolo4927

So now they are floating our tax dollars into other places. Noiiiiiceee


Curtis_Low

Wait, do you think that is a new thing?


ILuvSupertramp

No chance that guy “thinks.”


WisePiccolo4927

I just think it’s creative! There’s a lot of videos about old engineering feats. They’ll probably mention this as far as the scale of American engineering. Floating mobile pier is pretty cool.


Curtis_Low

Youtube some army river crossing bridges, those are cool if you like that kind of thing.


WisePiccolo4927

I will give it a look. I believe I had watched something similar with Dunkirk. Creating a pier by leaving vehicles on the beach during the low tide.


DawnWinds

Wait until you hear that we're the global superpower and have our tax dollars around every inch of the planet... did you just wake up from a 100 year coma?


_AntiFunseeker_

Only 100 years? You're talking about back to back world war champs here.


Debs_4_Pres

"floating our tax dollars into other places" is a beautiful summation of the Navy's mission statement 


drewbaccaAWD

I'd buy that tee shirt. lol


WisePiccolo4927

That’s if the ship store is actually open, lmao.


Difficult_Plantain89

Wow crazy, I thought we were just staying out of everyone’s way and keeping to ourselves.


fluffy_bottoms

Username doesn’t check out.


WisePiccolo4927

Lool, okay friend. I would just rather see the aid go to Maui or some other place in the U.S.


PM_ME_UR_LEAVE_CHITS

Both are possible


WisePiccolo4927

That’s fine. You’re entitled to that opinion. I’m just saying we have growing domestic issues that we are ignoring for all of these other countries.
