Or the USS Cole .

USS Cole was more ‘bullheadedness’ on the part of people not ‘schooled’ in Military ways, making Military decisions.
If citing a ship, I would think more along the line of USS Pueblo and or USS Liberty (which, IMNSHO, was no ‘accident’)....maybe started that way but those that made the original ‘mistake’ seemingly did EVERYTHING in their power to sink her ... EVEN had LBJ and AHole MacNamara on ‘their side’.
Then again, you appear to have been in the ‘mix’ in regards to these incidents....
USS Cole the ship’s watch was unarmed which was my point.
