If there's anything they can learn that will help other boats avoid the same fate, those five young men will not have died in vain. Please continue to keep us posted. I've scoured the US mainstream and come up empty. It isn't just Woods Harbour that can benefit from this. Seafaring communities all over the world can.

Take care.

Many of us know loss of loved ones. It's really good to talk about them. They were real and they're worth every ounce of grief we feel from losing them. It's a terrible loss to the community. And DU is part of your community too.

Due to the circumstances. Your Congressperson should be able to help you do that. I have been thinking of you and your family since you first posted about this tragic event. Keeping you all in my heart.

and lots of us here in the Lounge are grieving with you. It's not as personal, perhaps, but it certainly hurts to know what happened to these men, and the mark it will leave on their families.
