The US Navy ordered a safety stand-down for the entire submarine force on Wednesday in response to the results of an investigation into an incident last month in the South China Sea.

Eyes On Anons. If this is true, and the entire Pacific fleet is on Stand-Down, watch for China to make its move on Taiwan.
Shouldn't that be a "Float-Up" for a submarine?
It seems just a bit odd they would advertise this.
Is this stand down a feint by the white hats so that China makes a move?
Not by the White Hats that I know of. They would not want war and Taiwan to fall.
They would not want many millions of people to get vaxed either.
Who knows what the alternative would be.
Don't forget, Xi may well himself be a white hat and he may need to catch the CCP in an act.
I don't know. I'm going with my spidey sense.
Not with General Flyinnin charge of U.s. forces pacific.
This.
Yeah I call total bullshit. There is no way the entire Sub fleet will be announced as on Stand-Down so they can all learn how to not run into stationary objects in the ocean.. lol if anyone believes this I have some ocean front property in Kentucky to sell you.
Appear weak when you are strong.
This guy reads ^
Hopefully that is what they are doing here. I'm somewhat uncomfortable with the idea that they stood down the entire submarine fleet and then announced it to the world.
Why would this be advertised? For a purpose.
No, no don't try to pull any shit, you commie navy. We're on stand down.
Mr Tzu... is that U
Dude, that applies to when you are at war, not when you are trying to prevent war.
Can you imagine what a shitty deterrent appearing to be weak would be?
We are at war… the TV news just hasn’t told people.
Is the fleet actually on stand-down, or just advertising that notion? That’s a legit question, because I have no way of knowing the truth… but I don’t for a second blindly accept what is published in the news.
Absolutely. There is a ploy here somehow, but someone more in-the-know than me needs to examine what this is REALLY about.
I dunno the people running the navy are in chinas pocket and really stupid...
Yes we are already at war.
Getting the enemy to attack you, win you're are at war. When you are not at ACTIVE war, you delay war so you can increase you advantage. You only provoke the enemy to attack, when not at war, when your advantage grows less.
Yea that's right, the whole R. Reagan "Peace Through Strength", strategy was a ruse, it was really Peace Through Weakness that kept the enemy at bay all those years.
Dude, do you not understand that you are at war?
Could be some kind of comms but either way its definitely not what they are saying.
Think about it…
China declares themselves unauthorized dictator and deflacto owner of the South China Sea
Ghizlaine Maxwell’s trial starts and she’s a submarine “expert” going around the world selling “the sea” to the highest bidder so they can operate under “maritime laws” or laws where depths of sea do not have jurisdictional laws of any kind (EVERYTHING IS “LEGAL)
Navigational systems were previously tampered with providing cover for black ops underwater human trafficking, experimentation, as well as any other “special tastes” the elite want to indulge in
Underwater faggotry, incompetance, and espionage conducted throughout our military fleet
THE SUBMARINE CRASHED INTO AN “UNDERWATER MOUNTAIN STRUCTURE” that wasn’t natural NOR supposed to be there
What did they find?
How did they find it?
Who controlled the navigational path into the “structure?”
Who has been creating artificial man made island in the South China Sea?
Why?
Watch the water…
Can we discuss? 🤷🏽♀️👌🏽👊🏽
Sealab 2021
Don't touch my stash.
I DECLARE.... MARTIAN LAW!!
Heh
If you're looking for BC
You better check under the sea
But watch out, he's a little rape-y
Underneath the sealab, underneath the water
Perhaps the US sub was rammed by another sub. If the subversive actions in the US that created weakened steel on US subs built, and our enemies knew this & reinforced their sub for ramming…there would be a potential incident of catastrophic proportions. And the purposeful ramming by an enemy sub has plausible deniability as an accident. Reason enough to retest the fleet.
Amen. I recall years ago on research boards that Trump admin removed those Chinese chips from our planes but we have been so infiltrated it’s a continuous battle.
Maybe it was a torpedo and the Captain did a Rameous and turned into it. Torpedo hit it but didn't explode
Yes, that’s why we have this amazing community
Because "loose lips sink ships?"
Then they made like a tree and got the fuck outta there
Might need to refuckulate the carbonater.
"Careless talk costs wives".
My only concern is that the same commander in chief who orchestrated that Afghanistan debacle could do something that stupid.
Yep, smells like bs
It worked! I am now scared to death of uncharted sea mounts.
Better wear an oxygen tank just in case...
All of these sub stories have been super fishy.
Since when did we start disclosing the status of our most lethal and stealth strike weapon(s)?
And now a publicly disclosed stand-down? “C’mon man!”
Never. These stories about subs and training exercises and small pox randomly found in a lab fridge if true would never be talked about. These stories are like the teen Vogue for Patriots. Big scary stories that aren’t true.
Yep disinfo is necessary
Is your property on the Atlantic or Pacific side?
Atlantic. The view is second to none. There’s a dock for your cigarette boat and free sea turtle eggs. As a bonus with your cash deposit I’ll mail you a cashiers check to cover your moving expenses. Holla holla
Probably Arctic
On October 2, the powerful Seawolf-class nuclear-powered attack submarine USS Connecticut collided with an object, the Navy said in a statement five days after the incident as the damaged $3 billion submarine limped into port in Guam.
The Navy provided only limited information, revealing only that the submarine was stable, there were no life-threatening injuries, and that the nuclear systems on board were not affected. The sea service did not say where the incident occurred, but officials revealed it happened in the South China Sea.
In early November, the Navy finished its initial investigation into the accident, concluding that the submarine ran into an uncharted seamount. That report has not been publicly released, and the causes that led to the collision and the crew’s responses afterwards remain unknown.
Days later, Vice Adm. Karl Thomas, the commander of US 7th Fleet, decided to fire the command leadership of the Connecticut.
The commanding officer, Cmdr. Cameron Aljilani, as well as Lt. Cmdr. Patrick Cashin, the executive officer, and Master Chief Sonar Technician Cory Rogers, the chief of boat, were all relieved due to loss of confidence.
“The Seawolf-class fast-attack submarine USS Connecticut (SSN-22) struck an object while submerged on the afternoon of Oct. 2, while operating in international waters in the Indo-Pacific region. The safety of the crew remains the Navy’s top priority. There are no life-threatening injuries,” Capt. Bill Clinton told USNI News. “The submarine remains in a safe and stable condition. USS Connecticut’s nuclear propulsion plant and spaces were not affected and remain fully operational. The extent of damage to the remainder of the submarine is being assessed. The U.S. Navy has not requested assistance. The incident will be investigated.”
Note the Captain is named Bill Clinton

In subsequent articles in other media, Bill Clinton's name was removed. There was an article that ran I think in Fortune by the guy who was the columnist who writes about military affairs. He referred to the captain as just the captain. But you could easily look up and see the commander was Alijani. There is no way someone who writes on military affairs would not know that (or it was edited out by someone else).
You know how the symbolism guy writes about nuclear comms? Explosive Info? I wonder if the firing of the crew - now named in the thread article - plays into this?
Oh yes read his in-depth info all the time
are you infering the capt of the connecticut was listed as bill clinton?
The Navy's official spokesperson was a dude called Bill Clinton with the rank of Captain. Subs do NOT have Captains. They have Commanders.
look it up.
ya, I think I mentioned that in other comments, look that up. this question was to point out that these guys commenting on this were making it unclear. is that done purposely or for lack of trying? the captain of a ship does not necessarily have to hold the RANK of captain in the navy. maybe by labeling this bill clinton as a spokesperson would eliminate any confusion. maybe.
please tell me the USS Harvey Milk is ok
I have. he a pedo.
Really? Well that can't be, Hollywood made a movie celebrating his life! /s
lol. I used to think Sean Penn was a badass
Because we can’t trust the military. Lol. “USS Harvey Milk” = Q was a psyop
USS Liberace is doing well so is the USS Queer Eyes.
I think the Sub just made the Harvey Milk go, "Darn, I wish it was me what ran into a Sea Mount."
I wonder how deep this story goes.
About 3 inches till you hit the prostate. I heard.
Next they'll be naming a ship the USS Sigmoid Colon.
balls deep
Cameron = camera on.
From comms, it sounds like the cashing in portion has been neutralized, Bill Clinton (and maybe Maxwell) having figured/participated in the op. Now the ops are changing focus?
Aljilani? Jill? Maybe Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan, where it's a normal surname?
Nice! ☝🏼
This is the only article that says the Captain was named Bill Clinton.
https://forbesactuaries.com/commander-cameron-aljilani-and-two-other-officers-sacked-over-uss-connecticut-submarine-accident/
Every other article I have read says it was Cameron Aljilani
I thought Capt. Bill Clinton was the capt. that ran into the surface ship in Pacific a while back.
Then they have edited articles, because more than one article at the time said Clinton. At the time, I was wondering if the article was a comm saying that Clinton was hurt (by Durham or something)… and then several days after that article Clinton was admitted to the hospital.
Here’s my IG post on that, which has a screenshot of article stating Clinton….

Facepalm. Captain Clinton was the navy spokesperson who made the announcement, and has nothing to do with crew on the vessel. Subs have Commanders, not Captains.
Dug on this a month or so back.

The CO was Cameron Aljilani
Doesnt say that. Commander is a Navy rank, compounding the confusion? I dont see why they wouldn't fire the ship's commanding officer.
the top ranking person in command of a vessel is known as the captain of a ship, regardless of actual rank. not that they attain the naval rank of captain. submarine captains usually hold the naval rank of commander. not sure if it is you that needs this info or others here, just wanted to state it.
A few articles I read says 3 were relieved from duty.
corrupt female metallurgist + muslim commander Aljilani = go woke, get sub broke
Approved by BO.
Heads are going to roll.
Dont count on that
That may be the most SAUCED bad ass post I’ve ever seen in my life thank you for the straight up facts fren!!!
SAUCED TO THA GILLS
"Uncharted Seamount"? How did sonar not detect an underwater mountain?
Because 99% of the time active sonar is not in use. Only passive. Any transmissions are a counter detection threat. So you only go active in very specific instances. It’s rare.
The fact that they did fire the sonar chief, for something that would usually be a navigation problem, makes me believe there is more to the story.
Yup, active sonar pings give away position.
Because the Chinese and the rest of the cabal built it and it was found…
Shit runs downhill.
We had a spy falsifying metallurgy result on sub hulls. I bet the sub that hit an unknown mountain under water probably had some other hull problem.
Metallurgical uncertainty is a much better reason to stand down the entire fleet simultaneously. Whatever their reason is, it's hardware not just one guy bad at his job.
Not just one guy, I've done limited work for the military during my working years and one guy can't just be bad at his job. I was doing work for the original star wars program during the Reagan years and the Navy had people up my ass triple checking things. I was building proto-type printed circuit boards used for targeting things through the atmosphere, not subs. It would need to be a much broader conspiracy I would think.
Please note that a "safety stand down" is NOT a FULL stand down.
And, it's only related to navigational systems.
Probably just an abundance of caution.
Or.... some serious Sun-Tzu shit going on right now :)
Wasn't Hunt for Red October about a submarine, asking for a fren?
Yup.
That does NOT mean that the boats are in port and tied to the pier…just required safety briefings for the officers and crews so that their boat doesn’t make the same mistake(s) the Connecticut’s officers and crew did.
Carry on.
Added training on top of their already long and shitty days. Hooyah navy
Maybe one of those government funded hack off ur dick and get a stink box trannies was using the nav stick as a pleasure device. “Ooh the force feedback!! just a little more uncharted seamount , almost there...oooh baby!!”
I’m gonna go ahead and put all of my chips in on this I have a final answer of :diversity hire - pronouns -embarrassment - rainbow hair/rainbow dildo - faggotry
Triggered a tranny spy, they downvoted you
Good to see you alive and kicking tranny ass, Tupac.
Too funny.
Fags love a long vessell filled with seaman.
As a further step to make sure this sort of thing does not happen again, Vice Adm. William Houston, commander of Naval Submarine Forces, ordered a force-wide safety stand-down, Breaking Defense first reported Wednesday.
“We will have that and we will go ahead and learn our lessons,” he said at a naval event, according to USNI News. “The safety investigation board is not complete yet, but we know enough right now.”
“We have very rigorous navigation safety procedures and they fell short of what our standard was,” the admiral said.
Naval Submarine Forces spokesman Cmdr. Paul Macapagal told Insider that “the Submarine Force is conducting Force-wide navigational safety training as a result of the incident onboard the Seawolf-class fast-attack submarine USS Connecticut (SSN 22),”
He said that “submarine crews will be reviewing the lessons learned from USS Connecticut and governing doctrine to reinforce sound navigation practices. Submarine crews will review required procedures in navigation planning, operations, risk management, and best practices as part of this training.”
Navy leadership described this training as a stand-down and that the submarine force continues to operate and deploy.
they have been relieved of command. actually getting fired would mean being discharged. the press should stay away from the phrase of being fired in the military. it confuses so many people.
look over here...not over there. guidance system was fu-ked with electronically like those other ships a few years back.
I believe you hit the nail on the head. The Chinese f*** with a lot of our ships the last few years.
Yup
I would not put it past chyna to place navigational hazards, then bait a USN to chase a Chicom sub, the sub doing a crazy Ivan, & voila, the US sub hits the hazard. But, how does a 3Bn sub not have something passive to assist it not walking into an open door at night?
Passive sonar. That's why the Chief Sonarman was fired.
Just an old grunt here,but I find it hard to believe the navy would announce to the world that our subs are down.
Y'all have figured out they aren't talking about real submarines, right?
So.... We suck at being sailors due to spending way to much time on Diversity, Inclusion and Equity training. The solution is more diversity to make up for that racist underwater phallic object.
"Navy leadership described this training as a stand-down and that the submarine force continues to operate and deploy."
confusing comment.
Watch the water?

"Navy leadership described this training as a stand-down and that the submarine force continues to operate and deploy."
I think it is time for the USN to drag at about 12mi some side looking radar through the territory in/around the "Chicom" islands there.
If the sonarmen did their job, they used the sound from the collision to chart a pretty wide area.
Thank you.
It's not uncharted! You lost the chart!!!
When the san fran did this, multiple injuries too, we didn't stand down. The coners got some training and we all joked about it.
THAT is a scary thing...
Carriers are vulnerable... but subs are relatively safe...
Not completely, but compared to a carrier.
What better excuse if a chyna sub 'happens' to go missing? We didn du nuffin .... we be on stand down!
Do we know what the sub collided with?
In early November, the Navy finished its initial investigation into the accident, concluding that the submarine ran into an uncharted seamount.
uncharted underwater base maybe.
Or the beginning of a "new" Chinese island.
This
Maybe some dolphins kicked their ass. We could use some help.
'Stand down'
China goes for tye wahn
'No more stand down attack immediately'
Chy nuh buh bye
Watch the water?
Internal announcement at the top of whobexactky controls the military. The official story is b.s. and the officials who purport it are not in control.
Safety stand downs sure took a twist since I've been out.
