New Zealand's Lesbian Navy Captain Loses $100M Naval Ship in Peacetime Disaster – Ship Runs Aground, Catches Fire, and Sinks, Un...
New Zealand’s navy has suffered its first peacetime ship loss since World War II when the $100 million multi-role support vessel HMNZS Manawanui ran aground off the southern coast of Upolu Island, Samoa, caught fire and eventually sank—triggering...
Keir Starmer looks so exactly like this female captain that I thought this was a joke about Keir Starmer until I read the article.
It was one of only 5 fully operational ships in New Zealand’s navy.
That’s like a Collector handing his Teenage Kid the keys to an ultra rare and collectible car. And then the kid totaling it.
She's sorry. The inlet looked like a vagina, she was going in.
Probably focused on the lesbian equivalent of grinder.
Or grinding on the ship controls which is why it ran aground
This is why I prefer Old Zealand
Hell, they’ll probably make a movie about her now.
I hope Internet Histoian does it.
Sad, but our US Navy is definitely suffering the same desolation. Our ship count is dropping rapidly. They can’t even recruit to man the lower number of ships we do have because sailors are not motivated to say in. That is until we get President Trump back in the White House. The. We will turn it all around in a few short years.
This her sister?

Looks like one of my cousins, LOL.
It's worth reporting, and the article is mostly good. And that's a massive fail.
But ... first peacetime loss since WW2? Are we to understand their last peacetime loss was during the war?
Maybe it was because New Zealand was neutral during WW2?
New Zealand was part of the British Commonwealth war effort and did supply soldiers to fight during the war. Their soldiers were some of the best to fight in North Africa, but they mostly fought the Japanese closer to home.
Rommel is his papers wrote about the New Zealand Maori units they faced in North Africa.
Fiercest fighters his men faced during the war
I'm going with sloppy writing. Besides, they weren't neutral.
Should be something more like "in peacetime, suffered its first ship loss since WW2." I mean, TGP is great at bringing our flavor of news, and they explain what happens well enough, so it's not like I hate them. And they're clearly on our side. But it would still be nice if they actually paid attention to editing. Oh, well.
20% of their navy gone in one go. That's some sort of record, surely.
A battleship doesn't handle like a Subaru Forester.
