Did you read posts 949, 952, and 956? It appears that it is too soon to assign responsibility or to question anyone's training.
949 "My son said the charts showed open country for clear sailing. The senior people are really beating themselves up over what went wrong. And the crew is also concerned for the Captain, XO, Navigator,etc. He hopes everything will turn out good for them."
952 "He also told me of the detailed navagational charts that indicated clear sailing."
956 " . . . I know it's human nature to speculate but I have read the previous posts and they are way off.
"Third, CDR. Mooney is a Capt in the finest sense of the word. No matter what happens, He is MY Captain!"
I agree, SSGuy - HOOOYAH San Francisco!!
Has the subs' depth at the point of impact been posted already? Just curious and dont want to go through nearly 1000 posts to find out. Please and Thank You.
