What is going on with the Navy's Pacific Fleet? A second crash in as many months has left ten missing sailors. And this comes after they just fired the command staff of the USS Fitzgerald. Something needs to change, we cant be losing sailors to avoidable accidents on the high seas.

SGT David A. 'Cowboy' Groth SP5 Mark Kuzinski You know it; its been tough for sure. I just read that Chief of Naval Operations will be ordering a shutdown of the fleet for one day to take place over next several weeks at command discretion to review procedures and to reflect on shortcomings, etc. It should like its well needed especially in Japan based squadrons.

That is the best thing to do, so they can get to the bottom of things.
