This is bad.
Seven U.S. sailors are missing from the USS Fitzgerald after the ship collided with a Philippine-flagged merchant vessel ACX Crystal while operating off the coast of Japan, Fox News confirmed.
The Fitzgerald's Commanding Officer is among the four sailors who were injured and flown off the ship.
The ship was under its own power but had limited propulsion, according to the U.S. Navy. The incident happened 56 nautical miles southwest of Yokosuka, Japan....

It looks like the container ship hit and crushed the section of the Navy ship where the captain's sleeping quarters would be.
Somebody is going to be in big trouble for this.
