“On 22 June, the US Maritime Administration filed a seemingly bland incident report. The master of a ship off the Russian port of Novorossiysk had discovered his GPS put him in the wrong spot – more than 32 kilometres inland, at Gelendzhik Airport.”

“After checking the navigation equipment was working properly, the captain contacted other nearby ships. Their AIS traces – signals from the automatic identification system used to track vessels – placed them all at the same airport. At least 20 ships were affected.”

I agree.

But I do believe there’s a reason that no one in the US Navy has enough remaining integrity to admit.

Promotions in the officer ranks isn’t about competence anymore. It’s about compliance with the most idiot levels of PCism and SJWism.

So, there’s a good chance there are no more officers in the Navy capable of actually leading, but instead the Navy is filled with officers who are masters of the Diversity Training.
