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.

its not who you are is what you are that’s important to these idiots
The ChiComs are watching....
Forget her sexual preference. The problem is her sex.
I'd rather a gay man than a straight woman in charge of a Navy vessel.
“Her sexual preference is of no importance…”
Perverts minds are disordered. They don’t belong in positions of responsibility.
I agree. Why wouldn’t they mention eye color too.
Oh man...
Hitting on a dike and then going down...
Nice one.
“... us Vietnam era guys always look for that red-yellow-red National Defense ribbon. Everything below it is BS.”
With one exception: All foreign awards are positioned at the bottom of the “rack”. So even a fairly prestigious foreign medal would still go below the NatDef ribbon. Other than that, yes.
They ought not be allowed on FR.
Incompetent subordinate officers is ABSOLUTLY the Captain’s responsibility, it does not excuse the Captain.
The Captain should know the crews ability and oversee operations accordingly.
Sorry no matter how you slice it this one is on the Captain and lack of leadership.

Stylish.
Her “sexual preference” is delusional and depraved. Delusional and depraved might get lucky but is never competent.
DEI doing its’ best job to destroy everything it touches.

Insanity! Just wait till the big war comes.
“I bet they give her another dam ship.”
But the next one will have more carpets.

That’s a hell of a price to pay for being ‘stylish’
Some 20 plus years ago NZ got rid of all their fighter jets. Sad little country that relies on its location as it’s defense.
I’ll bet his LinkedIn page sucked.
