The U.S. Navy has confirmed that a wreck discovered last year by the Royal Australian Navy is that of USS Edsall (DD 219). Lost in the Indian Ocean in 1942, the exact fate of the Edsall was unknown until a decade later when captured Japanese film revealed that the destroyer had been sunk after coming under attack by two cruisers, two battleships, and 26 dive bombers from three carriers. A post-war investigation determined that at least six of Edsall's crewmen were captured and executed.

I urge our international partners to protect Georgia by standing with the people, not an illegitimate government. Just as you opposed the Russian law, we ask you to stand with us again. These elections are illegitimate, and nothing can change that.

The @USNavy Orca #XLUUV just returned from a 48-hour endurance run! The vessel operated fully autonomously subsea, surfacing multiple times to recharge its battery. This mission showcased the advanced capabilities of our XLUUV, such as its ability to deploy to remote locations.
