The little underfunded CG having to clean up the Army's mess.

Sure would hate to be the guy responsible for running aground.

How do you hit an island? Didn't think even the army could do that. Then again:

It's a landing craft, they come to shore...apparently it hit some sort of submerged object.

Sad news for the crew. I hope everyone is okay. More information here about the LCU type ships. Also, it looks like the CG answered a mayday with injuries from the crew originally, so double kudos to them.
