Software glitches leave Navy Smart Ship dead in the water

I remember. I found the absence of the web content hosted on the
Yorktown to be significant loss.

person who approved the intentional shutdown of all aviation
communications without any warning is truly guilty of the subject
offence, IMNSHO.
