Thanks George
I was afraid you were going to say that. Handwritten I suppose....
I was not aware the USN made a difference between combat losses and accidents.
To me it is the loss itself that is important and it is easy enough so separate them when you make
your statistics, daily, weekly or monthly.
From what you say, it seems to me that 9881 was not involved but the two dumped SOCs were 0399
and 9861
