The preliminary report, embedded in the following article, focuses mainly on damage control, not the cause(s) of this tragic collision at sea. From The New York Times: Top Two Officers on Navy Ship in Deadly Collision Off Japan to Be Relieved of Duties The ship, the destroyer Fitzgerald, collided with a cargo freighter in the middle of the night, killing seven sailors. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/17/world/asia/fitzgerald-collision-investigation.html?mwrsm=Email
