The country of New Zealand lost its first navy vessel since World War II after the HMNZS Manawanui - a $100 million survey and dive vessel commissioned in 2018 - ran aground, burst into flames, and sank off the coast of Samoa.
The commanding officer was Commander Yvonne Gray, a Brit who moved to New Zealand in 2012 and joined the NZ Navy after taking a vacation to the country with her lesbian wife. She had previously served with the British Navy since 1993.
Reports say that after the ship crashed into the reef, it caught fire within 15 minutes and sank, which now sets up a potentially disastrous oil spill that could greatly harm the local reef and the fishing ecosystem there.

DEI doing its’ best job to destroy everything it touches.
I bet China is paying attention.
DEI will make you DIE.
Safe to say China doesn’t have lesbians commanding their naval vessels. They’re not stupid.
"oil spill that could greatly harm the local reef and the fishing ecosystem"
Yeah, that is the problem. /sarc
A guy does this hes done.
I bet they give her another dam ship.
...and women are its primary agents of destruction.
"Ex-Royal Navy commander praised for saving lives after New Zealand naval ship sinks"
I looked it up - the New Zealand Navy had nine, now eight, ships, of which five, now four, are operational. Four ships. The Chinese must be trembling.
100,000,000 oops, I don’t blame the lesbian captain, I blame the person who thought lesbian was a more important adjective than competent.
I worry about the day when a SSBN captain is placed in command using the same decision criteria. That will be a 100,000,000,000 oops.

Well, there you go. Climate Change obviously moved the reef into a position not shown on the charts. What other explanation could there be?
🤔
China has its own problems with incompetence in the military.
I certainly hope so.
The charts were wrong anyway cause some old white dude drew them up.
What? Would not have her even drive a truck!
Yes indeed. It was reported recently that satellite imagery spotted China’s fancy new nuclear submarine reposing (unintentionally) on the seabed and being fussed over by maritime cranes.
At least she restrained herself and didn’t run it into a dike.
