They were all recovered. 6 USCG people were treated and released. 1 of the USN personell had critical injuries and was air lifted off the island later that night.

Hope it's not career-ending for those in command.

I head a rumor that the Navy small boat had it's pilot house nearly removed. Can't see how that could happen unless broadsided or a steep angle impact. Will really depend from which side it came I guess. Prayers for the quick recovery of all involved.

So no AIS most likely (don't want to broadcast where you are). someone needs radar training.

Should be able to limit the damage to some culpable enlisted men
On the face of it, that's a breathtaking and insulting conclusion supported by NO facts. It is entirely likely that no officer was aboard either vessel, but it is also likely the officers responsible for the training of the coxswains will face tough scrutiny, just as the commander of the US Seventh Fleet, who was fired, did over recent collisions out there in the Western Pacific.

Most likely a petty officer was in charge on both vessels.
I want to wait until the investigation is complete before assigning blame.

If not the next ensign to walk by will be reprimanded for failure to properly train and supervise. :lol:
