How many hundreds of Liberty ships or similar ships were their out there?
As for a flag, the Egyptian navy had flown a false flag when they sank the Elath. Israeli pilots were told that there would be no American ships in the area.
Should the Israeli pilots have double checked? Yep.
Should there have been a US Naval liason to note that there were American ships their, despite LBJ's promise? Yep.
Welcome to war and government cover ups.
