A suicide bomber came along side her in a speedboat. No one spotted the boat in time to act and 17 sailors were killed. Port security is VERY important, especially with drones becoming more accessible and deadly.

Typical ignorant American-centered mindset. What is your proof China has “less trained crew members”? Experience is overrated, no one cares, and if you think even 5% of the USN’s enlisted has seen “war” or “combat” then you’re delusional. And no, China’s ships do not have “less technology”. They are on par, and better in some areas. If you actually knew what you were talking about, you’d know a Type 055’s radar, the Type 346, is a more powerful radar than any destroyer or cruiser the US currently possesses.

Not home every night, danger for life etc. Wish you guys got paid more. A guy playing soccer gets millions, and a bro working his ass off solo, away from home for months even years gets bare minimum. They work with lethal stuff around them, and then they hear; "your injuries are not service related". A diffrent breed these people. Mad respect from the Netherlands!
