"Data gleaned indirectly from anonymous testimony of Navy wives of the affected crew via the internet radio show A Marine Disquisition."

Read with discernment. There's an mp3 at the source.

I suspect we'll never hear what really happened. H1N1 or not, the military will never reveal anything that might aid others in incapacitating their ships.

Yeah, you're probably right Oort. Unless there are some people who are ship-spotters, maybe? (Is that a hobby even? *LOL*) They would have to notice if five ships suddenly came home, eh? I remember the extraordinary rendition thing was helped uncovered by plane-spotters who noticed the odd comings and goings of CIA planes around the world.

Until then, all this is just rumours and speculation, I guess. Scary rumours, though.
