I did a search: "The USS Shreveport met such a wave while operating in the Virginia Capes operational area (OPAREA). The wave washed over the Shreveport’s bow and crashed into the superstructure at bridge level. It knocked out every window in the bridge, and men and equipment were battered. Before meeting this freak wave, the seas were normal, based on the wind conditions at the time. "
When we traveled through the Bermuda Triangle, the engines shut down for an hour, inexplicably.
