Sortie...sort of

Some minor excitement out here...Saturday we had a small accident. One of the small fishing boats we can charter has flipped over outside the lagoon. Four people had been thrown into the water. Our ship got underway to launch our rescue boats to attempt to recover who and what we could. Unfortunately two of the four passed away before they could be rescued. One was a US Navy Chief. The other was a civillian captain of the fishing boat. It was a very sad day out here.
