Earlier today, the USS Bonhomme Richard caught fire in San Diego. It was undergoing routine maintenance when the fire started. There was at least one, possibly two explosions.
I have a friend who lives very near by and knows a civilian contractor there. Scuttlebutt says it could have been a welding accident. Also, the fire has engulfed the ship, and it cannot be saved. It sounds like they will just let the ship burn to the waterline. There were way less Sailors onboard than there normally would be. My prayers are out to all those injured.
I'm thinking some sailor was out late last night and had to show up for a shift all hungover and fucked something up this morning.
