An investigation found that their deaths were preventable and were ultimately caused by a string of failures during that dangerous mission.The two SEALs were carrying extremely heavy gear during the <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/navy-seals-lost-at-sea-reportedly-looking-for-iranian-weapons-2024-1">nighttime raid on a small vessel</a> that was sailing through the Arabian Sea in January. When one fell into the water, he sank. Another SEAL jumped into the water to rescue him, but they were pulled beneath the surface. The entire incident unfolded in less than a minute.A lengthy, heavily redacted investigation made public Friday reveals extensive details from the deadly mission and what is believed to have led to the deaths of Chief Special Warfare Operator Christopher Chambers and Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Nathan Gage Ingram.The investigation blamed the tragic drownings on "a lack of a fail-safe and layered defense to provide buoyancy" in the event it became necessary "to overcome the weight of equipment, fatigue from extreme physical exertion and resultant inability to tread water, or an injury suffered during the boarding process.""This incident, marked by systemic issues, was preventable," Vice Adm. George M. Wikoff, the commander of US Naval Forces Central Command, said in the final version of an opinion repeated throughout the investigation.<h2 id="675fbfc3-2f98-4a83-b920-056336a6bc88">A dangerous mission</h2>On January 11, SEALs operating from the expeditionary mobile base <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/uss-lewis-puller-tanker-like-warship-floating-navy-seal-base-2024-1">USS Lewis B.

Some commandos used an attachable ladder to board the dhow, while others simply climbed over the vessel's railing.Chambers, who was carrying as much as 48 pounds of gear, attempted to grab the railing on the dhow but slipped and fell some 9 feet into the water. He tried to get back onto the boat but was swept under by a wave.Ingram, who was carrying an estimated 80 pounds of gear, jumped in seconds later to try to save Chambers, but he quickly sank into the sea, despite some indications that he tried to shed some of his equipment and deploy his flotation device. The waters in the area are around 12,000 feet deep."Observing his teammate struggling, (Ingram) jumped into the water to render (Chambers) assistance," the investigation says. "Encumbered by the weight of each individual's gear, neither their physical capability nor emergency supplemental flotation devices, if activated, were sufficient to keep them at the surface."<div type="image" title="An SH-60R Seahawk, embarked aboard a U.S. Navy ship, hovers overhead, during visit, board, search and seizure (VBSS) operations in the Arabian Sea." height="1295" width="1939" msid="114158703" hostid="261" sizebytes="173982"></div>The entire incident took place in just 47 seconds.

Michael Kurilla <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.centcom.mil/MEDIA/PRESS-RELEASES/Press-Release-View/Article/3651310/centcom-status-update-on-missing-navy-seals/">said in January</a>.The <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/sea-raid-navy-seals-go-missing-vbss-dangerous-complex-2024-1">boarding mission</a> was still executed and resulted in US forces seizing a range of weaponry bound for the Houthis, including parts to make ballistic and cruise missiles, which the Iran-backed rebels have used to <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/us-navy-battles-best-iranian-tech-red-sea-admiral-2024-10'">attack merchant shipping lanes</a> in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden.<h2 id="afae386c-80ec-4a8e-a1d3-96261359ba38">A string of failures</h2>According to Naval Special Warfare Command's training, tactics, and procedures for boarding vessels, one of the most dangerous phases of a mission like this is the process of embarking onto the suspect's craft, the investigation says."There is no doubt the act of boarding a suspected smuggling vessel is dangerous and can elevate in risk depending on the factors of the mission," it says.<div type="image" title="Iranian weapons seized by US forces during the January 11 raid." height="778" width="1200" msid="114158702" hostid="261" sizebytes="57932"></div>However, the investigation continues to say that "deficiencies, gaps and inconsistencies in doctrine, tactics, techniques and procedures created missed opportunities for safeguards that could have decreased the likelihood for this incident."According to the investigation, the gaps included conflicting guidance on buoyancy requirements, issues with the maintenance of emergency buoyancy equipment, failure to recognize risks to buoyancy, and failure to recognize the role that emergency flotation devices and supplemental buoyant material should play in achieving buoyancy, the ability to float.The investigation also called out insufficient training with the Tactical Flotation Support System device.In the wake of the fatal incident, the investigation outlines several recommended changes, including a review of training and adding pre-mission requirements such as checking equipment and buoyancy.

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Hurricane Milton barreled into Florida's west coast Wednesday.</li><li>The storm made landfall as a category 3 hurricane.</li></ul>Hurricane Milton made landfall in Florida on Wednesday evening as a Category 3 storm.The monster hurricane slammed into the state's west coast, near Siesta Key in Sarasota County, unleashing heavy winds and a flurry of tornadoes and threatening to further devastate an area still recovering from Hurricane Helene two weeks ago.Milton had <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hurricane-milton-timeline-see-storm-evolution-from-space-satellite-imagery-2024-10">"explosively" intensified</a> over the Gulf of Mexico into a Category 5 storm earlier this week, according to the <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/index.shtml#Milton">National Hurricane Center</a>, spinning up peak winds of up to 180 mph. When it made landfall, Milton still pummeled the Tampa Bay area and southwest Florida with high winds reaching up to 120 mph and blanketed the state in heavy rain.The storm could also trigger widespread flooding and surges as high as 15 feet along the Florida coastline, which the National Hurricane Center has warned could be "catastrophic."Across the state, Floridians were racing to comply with evacuation orders, obtain gas from <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/florida-gas-stations-out-of-fuel-before-hurricane-milton-landfall-2024-10">depleted petrol pumps</a>, and bracing for lost power. Even in counties along Florida's eastern Atlantic coast, which was further from the storm's central eye, a series of dangerous tornadoes decimated some homes and sent residents seeking shelter.Dante Sacks, a 25-year-old resident of Parkland, a city in Broward County where conditions had begun to deteriorate by Wednesday evening, said roughly half a dozen of his loved ones spent most of the day Tuesday evacuating cities in the storm zone such as St. Petersburg, Siesta Key, and Fort Myers. He told Business Insider his aunts and uncles made it to Miami ahead of the storm's arrival after a "horrendous" drive, but had had no idea what kind of damage it could do to their homes."At the end of the day, we're just praying that all of our family is fine, that they've all evacuated, that their own homes are safe," he said.They left most of their possessions behind, he added, save for their clothes and electronic devices.Sacks estimated the damage to their properties could collectively reach into the millions and said the family was hoping insurance would cover the inevitable losses. It's created "an insane amount of stress," he said.<h2 id="cb0f97cb-2f4b-47ee-8e7f-0e434ae0b22c">Mounting damage rattles homeowners</h2>The region had made a last-minute push to <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hurricane-helene-milton-tampa-florida-desantis-clean-disaster-dangerous-2024-10">clean up remnant debris</a> from Helene — including fallen trees, drywall, appliances, and broken furniture — to prevent them from being turned into projectiles by Milton's ferocious winds and dangerous storm surge.The back-to-back storms could deal a serious blow to Florida's <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/hurricane-milton-category-four-storm-real-estate-market-insurance-damages-2024-10">volatile real estate market</a>.Some homeowners in the Sunshine State previously <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/florida-real-estate-worth-it-home-prices-insurance-hurricane-helene-2024-10">told Business Insider</a> after Helene smashed through the state that they were reconsidering whether to stay in the state.

"What I want to make sure I have available is enough funding to support another event, considering that we are still in hurricane season."

<ul class="summary-list"><li>The US military this week rescued three men who had been stranded on a Pacific island for days.</li><li>The men were spotted by a Navy aircraft after they used leaves to write "HELP" in the sand.</li></ul>In an unusual scene seemingly out of a movie, the US military this week rescued three individuals who were stranded on an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean after they used palm leaves to write "HELP" in big letters on the beach.The lost mariners spent more than a week stuck alongside their damaged boat at Pikelot Atoll, a tiny island that's part of the Federated States of Micronesia, before an American military vessel recovered them on Tuesday, US Coast Guard Forces Micronesia, Sector Guam said in a Wednesday <a target="_blank" href="https://www.news.uscg.mil/Press-Releases/Article/3734724/us-coast-guard-us-navy-unite-for-maritime-rescue-emphasizing-community-ties-in/">statement</a>.A US Navy reconnaissance aircraft spotted the men from above on Sunday, leading to a breakthrough moment in the rescue operation."In a remarkable testament to their will to be found, the mariners spelled out 'HELP' on the beach using palm leaves, a crucial factor in their discovery," Lt. Chelsea Garcia, the search and rescue mission coordinator, said in Tuesday's Coast Guard's statement.<div type="image" title="The crew of USCGC Oliver Henry make contact with three mariners stranded on Pikelot Atoll, Yap State, Federated States of Micronesia, on April 9, 2024." height="1201" width="2000" msid="109205369" hostid="261" sizebytes="277954"></div>"This act of ingenuity was pivotal in guiding rescue efforts directly to their location," Garcia added.The three mariners initially set off on a March 31 voyage from Polowat Atoll, which is around 100 nautical miles southeast of Pikelot. Nearly a week later, on Saturday, a relative of the men reported them missing to the US military, which quickly mobilized the search and rescue operation, according to the Coast Guard.A Navy P-8 Poseidon aircraft, which is used for patrol and reconnaissance missions, first identified the men, whose small motorboat had suffered damage and couldn't function anymore, at Pikelot on Sunday and airdropped them survival packages.<div type="image" title="The crew of USCGC Oliver Henry rescues three mariners stranded on Pikelot Atoll, Yap State, Federated States of Micronesia, on April 9, 2024." height="1051" width="1751" msid="109205371" hostid="261" sizebytes="238244"></div>The following day, on Monday, a Coast Guard HC-130J Hercules recovery aircraft airdropped a radio on the island so that the US could communicate with the mariners, who said they were in good health and still had access to food and water, but needed help leaving the island.By Tuesday morning, the Coast Guard Cutter Oliver Henry had arrived at Pikelot to physically rescue the men and bring them back to Polowat."This successful operation underscores the effective coordination and partnership between the US Coast Guard, the US Navy, and regional partners," Garcia said. "We extend our gratitude to everyone involved." <div type="image" title="The crew of USCGC Oliver Henry rescues three mariners stranded on Pikelot Atoll, Yap State, Federated States of Micronesia, on April 9, 2024." height="1200" width="2000" msid="109205373" hostid="261" sizebytes="329960"></div>The Coast Guard in its statement suggested that mariners should equip boats with an emergency position-indicating radio beacon, which is a battery-powered radio transmitter, to "enhance safety on the water." It's unclear if the three mariners had one when they set out on their journey on March 31.Search and rescue operations <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/in-china-competition-us-coast-guard-does-unique-missions-2022-1">are a significant part</a> of the Coast Guard's responsibilities. This important service branch, for example, led the charge during last June's hunt for a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/passengers-titan-submersible-dead-oceangate-titanic-2023-6">submersible that went missing</a> while traveling to visit the wreckage of the Titanic. The Coast Guard has also carried out more recent searches for individuals who <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/coast-guard-searching-cruise-ship-crew-member-went-overboard-2023-11">went missing while on cruise ships</a>.The Coast Guard has <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/in-china-competition-us-coast-guard-does-unique-missions-2022-1">long operated in the Pacific</a> — its ships used to patrol American territories and other nearby countries for decades. But the service has increasingly played a more hands-on role in the region amid rising tensions between the US and China.Such activity in the Pacific includes conducting training and exercises together with allies and partners and helping island countries police their coastal waters.

US military rescued mariners stranded in the Pacific after they used palm leaves to spell 'HELP' on the beach

<ul class="summary-list"><li>Three men stranded on a Pacific island were rescued after creating a "HELP" sign with palm leaves.</li><li>A survival expert said lighting three fires is an effective way to send a distress signal.</li></ul>Three mariners stranded on an island in the Pacific Ocean were rescued earlier this month after they made a large <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/us-military-finds-men-used-leaves-write-help-pacific-island-2024-4">"HELP" signal by laying out palm leaves</a> on the beach — a scene right out of a movie.The men, all in their 40s, left Polowat Atoll, a tiny coral island that's part of the Federated States of Micronesia, on March 31, traveling in a small, 20-foot skiff. Nearly a week later on April 6, a relative reported them missing.On April 9, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.news.uscg.mil/Press-Releases/Article/3734724/us-coast-guard-us-navy-unite-for-maritime-rescue-emphasizing-community-ties-in/">US military forces</a> rescued the group from Pikelot Atoll, another tiny island in Micronesia about 1,000 miles north of Papa New Guinea and around 100 nautical miles from where the men set out."In a remarkable testament to their will to be found, the mariners spelled out 'HELP' on the beach using palm leaves, a crucial factor in their discovery. This act of ingenuity was pivotal in guiding rescue efforts directly to their location" Lt. Chelsea Garcia, the search and rescue mission coordinator at the time the men were found, said in a statement from the Coast Guard.A US Navy P-8 Poseidon aircraft discovered the mariners. They dropped survival packages, while the Coast Guard Cutter Oliver Henry was rerouted to Pikelot to rescue the men, whose boat had been damaged.A <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/survival-expert-explains-how-woman-survived-in-utah-national-forest-2021-5">survival expert</a> told Business Insider the men were smart to create a signal, but that there may be even more effective ways of doing so to indicate to others you're in distress.<h2>The universal rule of three</h2>Cat Bigney, a survival consultant and instructor at the Boulder Outdoor Survival School, said that often the best way to get spotted by a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/photos-titanic-passengers-getting-rescued-by-carpathia-2020-4">rescue team</a> is to start a fire, as a big smoke stack can be spotted from miles away.And not just one fire, but ideally three. Three of anything is considered the universal <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/family-6-rescued-oregon-mountain-after-using-iphones-sos-feature-2024-3">signal of distress</a>: three fires, three blows in a whistle, three gunshots. Think of the original SOS call, the morse code distress signal which consists of three dots, three dashes, and three dots.Bigney said it's most effective to build the three fires in a row, as the succession of smoke fumes will signal to anyone who can see them that you need help."You want to use anything that's going to cause a lot of smoke" to build the fire, she said, such as green vegetation or damp wood —which produce more smoke because it burns at a lower temperature and results in <a target="_blank" href="https://extension.unh.edu/blog/2017/12/how-can-i-tell-if-my-firewood-seasoned-okay-burn">incomplete combustion</a>.Depending on the circumstances, it may be best to wait to light the fires until a plane or boat is visible to ensure you are ready when a rescue team is nearby, and so they do not miss you.Beyond fires, Bigney said it's ideal to create signals with contrast. So in the case of the men stranded on Pikelot Atoll, palm leaves against bright white sand may've created enough contrast to be seen easily from afar.It's also generally recommended to spell out <a target="_blank" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/guides/tech/emergency-sos-iphone">SOS</a>, rather than a message like "HELP," in part because the letters in SOS can also be read upside down."Now what they did, worked," Bigney said of the rescued men. "So I think the take-home message is be creative and do something."The Coast Guard said the men had access to food and water while stranded with their damaged boat. Bigney said it was not necessarily the most dire survival situation but that other factors, like incessant sand fleas or nearby predators, could make it hard for some people to think clearly."They did a good job. They thought to signal for help," she said, adding, "Oftentimes it is just a psychological game, in any situation."

<ul class="summary-list"><li>A former OceanGate contractor said that the company used a partially manual system to track the submersible.</li><li>They would first transcribe the details into a notebook and then transfer it to Excel, she said.</li></ul>A contractor for OceanGate's<a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.businessinsider.com/passengers-titan-submersible-dead-oceangate-titanic-2023-6"> ill-fated Titan submersible</a> says that the team tracked the vessel's position using a system that involved a notebook and an Excel spreadsheet.Antonella Wilby, a former OceanGate contractor, said during a Friday <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOaatO7CBOw">hearing</a> on the Titan submersible's implosion that the team would manually update the vessel's coordinate data.According to Wilby's testimony, OceanGate's team would first transcribe the details into a notebook and then transfer the numbers to Microsoft Excel.She said the data was then imported into a mapping software to track the submersible's position. "There were delays because there was this manual process of first writing down the lat-long coordinates and then typing them in," Wilby, who testified virtually, said."We tried to do that every five minutes, but it was a lot to do," she added.Wilby said that she made a comment to the team about the system, during which she told OceanGate that she thought it was "an idiotic way to do your navigation."Wilby said she recognized calling the method "idiotic" wasn't "the most tactful way" to communicate her concerns."But I do stand by that. It was. It just — the whole system was absolutely idiotic," Wilby added. "But that, of course, wasn't received well after the dive.""Wendy Rush told me, 'Well, we can retrain you so that you understand how the mapping works, because we've had this foremost expert design it for us,'" Wilby added, referring to OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush's wife.Wilby testified during the hearing that she was removed from the navigation team after she raised concerns about the safety of the company's procedures. Wilby added that she was told that she "wasn't being solution-oriented."According to her LinkedIn profile, Wilby has worked on several projects involving underwater remotely operated vehicles.She worked as a robotics engineer for a maritime exploration company.
