has it been determined what other ships, if any, were in the vicinity?..could it be that there were two cargo ships playing games with the destroyer?....I’ve heard that the destroyer at one point was completely stopped in the water before the crash.

Nay, the collision was 100% the fault of the US crew. Even if the cargo vessel was TRYING to hit the destroyer.Conviction first, evidence and trial later ?

The only question that need be answered: Did the Fitz have the ability to avoid being hit by a 39,000 ton cargo vessel?
What other question(s) could be relevant?

People have the ability to avoid being hit by cars, and cars have the ability to avoid hitting people...yet, cars hit people (for a variety of reasons).

The only question that need be answered: Did the Fitz have the ability to avoid being hit by a 39,000 ton cargo vessel?Since it would seem the answer to that is obvious(it had the ability), then the real question that should be answered is WHY DIDN'T IT ?

Watch crew either not paying attention or assuming it was someone else’s responsibility.

On a navy ta promoted Holly Graf to Captain and allowed her to retire at that rank under “honorable circumstances”, I find it easy to believe.
