Another thread talks about the McCain letter and Dr. Savage's comments. One reply expressed doubt that McCain caused the fire and explosions on the Forrestal.

I looked at wiki graffiti and it described the cause as a rocket mounted under-wing that "was accidentally fired due to an electrical power surge during the switch from external power to internal power. The surge originated from the fact that high winds had blown free the safety pin, which would have prevented the fail surge, as well as a decision to plug in the "pigtail" system early to increase the number of takeoffs from the carrier."

Obviously I will defer to experts but caused by high winds? Like they rarely if ever see high winds?

Oh, no, not the Japanese restaurant again! I hope nobody changed their baby’s diaper on the table.

I would have predicted be would have talked about Benghazi today.
