Once in awhile war is Boring has a pretty good story.

Another look at the attack on the USS Stark, no sources are provided, but I think this one is plausible.

Good article. I had a RDC in boot camp who was aboard Stark during that event. He was fanatical about damage control and firefighting; we never knew why until he told us the story shortly before graduating.

A fellow CTI was on there and started talking about the strike but he trailed off...
