Navy replaces commander after ship hits moored bulker in Montreal

摘要

The U.S. Navy has replaced the commander of a new combat ship that struck a moored bulk carrier while getting underway in the St. Lawrence River in Montreal. LCS 15, the future USS Billings, hit the 453-foot Rosaire A. Desgagnes at about 1400 on June 21 while departing berth 31 at the Port of Montreal. The starboard side of the naval ship struck the bulker aft on its port side.
