Two people reported minor injuries Wednesday when a U.S. warship and a Navy supply vessel assigned to the military buildup in the Caribbean collided during a ship-to-ship refueling, according to a military spokesman.

The Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Truxtun and the Supply-class fast combat support ship USNS Supply collided during a replenishment-at-sea, according to U.S. Southern Command spokesman Col. Emmanuel Ortiz. Two people reported minor injuries and are in stable condition, and both ships have reported that they are able to continue sailing safely, Ortiz said.

      Judge blocks Pete Hegseth’s censure of Sen. Mark Kelly over troops video, for now

      Shame on those lawmakers who originally said that Sen. Kelly made a bad choice (in exercising his right to free speech.)... The defendants in this case are the secretary of WAAH (Hedgehog,) the department of WAAH (D'OH!,) the Department of Navy & Navy Secretary John Phelan. A federal judge on Thursday barred Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth from censuring Sen. Mark Kelly over the Arizona Democrat’s participation in a video reminding American military service members of their right to refuse illegal orders. Judge Rich Leon’s order in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., also blocks Hegseth, for now, from reducing Kelly’s U.S. Navy rank and retirement pay as punishment for his role in the video. Kelly retired from the Navy as a captain.
