I think it's unwise to announce such things....
If it was caused by someone testing "blocking" equipment -- it gave them some useful and perhaps dangerous information.....

Of course, OPSEC is paramount, but if this was a test the Navy would not be out looking for these guys and calling in rescue teams.

Agreed. Our Military needs to remember that "Loose lips sink ships."
