Anyone know anything about the USS San Juan incident?

[bobthedrummer]

I'm kind of curious if any Florida DUers know anything more than what was touched on-I mean when a nuclear submarine's crew's families are notified that it's "missing" and the USS Enterprise Strike Group and SLANT scramble into search and recovery ops during the war on terror because all communication with the USS San Juan was "lost"-well, what's going on?

2. Actually from AP & The Guardian then I started looking elsewhere

here's a report from Jacksonville

and another from Connecticut

I mean what about the Florida folks??? What's up???

on edit since loudsue is from NC I can't believe the lack of discussion about this here.

3. That is pretty weird. But not unusual that we don't hear anything

from the press.

I wonder what the deal was? Evidently, so do the commanders on the ground!
