Oliver- my son is a Navy Diver CS.

The story that divers from the dive school did this, and it was ok because divers don’t do covert so it really wasn’t an act of war, was ridiculous on its face to anyone with knowledge of the NSW community.

The divers weren’t going to take the heat for this.

Hersch’s tale is more proof of the amateur hour that is the Nuland/Sullivan team. Enemies of America.
