No one is “infallable”(sic), but a 39 year run ain’t too shabby.

Don't count out luck and skill in the two fairly recent collisions. One of those was a very near thing, and the other could have turned out badly.

Luck is the residue of design...skill needs no explaination.

Could we have another sub go down, absolutely. Anytime man endeavors out of his element, catastrophe is a possibility.

Besides SSN-711, what was the other recent collision?
