Stranded at sea
(No Ratings Yet)
Loading ...Sailing in the Caribbean onboard the USS PATTERSON, we returned to sea after suffering several small fires from efforts to restart a faulty generator while the ship is conducting drills in the Caribbean. The PATTERSON was subsequently towed to Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico, for one day or repairs. No injuries or damage to the ship are reported.
Now where do we report the fun things like having to lower the motor whaleboat to send someone to shore to use a pay phone to call for help? And where to we report the other ships name that came alongside and hooked us up to shore power cables to give us a jump start? This was a great little Navy adventure
