I was a Destroyer sailor for a short time. 45' is way too close. Even during unreps (underway replenishment), 45' is too close. counter.social/media/YvKy8mOm9

I know a bunch of old Navy guys. Mostly subs, and they are shocked by this story. For a big boomer 45 feet is “right on top of”… For a surface Destroyer it must be worse.

@corlin It is, insanely close. Even during unreps, my guess is it was about 100'. Even then, the other ship looked like it was towering over us. Routine was to keep fire brigade on the deck during the whole thing.
