The fleet oiler assigned to the Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group was damaged off the coast Oman in the Arabian Sea on Monday, Navy officials confirmed to USNI News.

USNS Big Horn (T-AO-198) was anchored off the coast of Oman after suffering an underwater allision to the stern of the oiler, the official told USNI News. The Navy now plans to use tugs to move the oiler to a nearby port.

“USNS Big Horn (T-AO-198), a replenishment oiler, sustained damage while operating at sea in the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations overnight on Sept. 23. All crew members are currently safe and U.S. 5th Fleet is assessing the situation,” according to a statement from a Navy official provided to USNI News.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Does anything ever happen good on Biden's watch?

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.
