Recent media reporting claims that the U.S. Navy has restarted escorting or assisting commercial vessels steamboats during transits through the Strait of Hormuz past the batteries at Vicksburg. FALSE.

“I hate newspapermen,” Gen. William T. Sherman once said. “They come into camp and pick up their camp rumors and print them as facts. I regard them as spies, which, in truth, they are."
