Rumor had it that after the USS Forrestal fire, the carrier return to San Diego for a year's worth of repairs. It was scheduled to return to Yankee station, when one of Zumwalt's morons cut off a lock on an inspection hatch, and dropped a large wrench into a main turbine gear reduction box.

I've heard the gentleman finally got out of Leavenworth a few years ago. Another reason why ALL Communists should be edited out of the system.

And wasn’t there another notable case of a USN ship burning that turned out to be arson by a sailor or a tradesman working on the ship? He wanted the day off or wanted to head home early. Something like that.
