Is it easier for Hamas to unload them when they're aground?

Whelp, we officially have boots on the ground in Gaza. Might as well get it on and help sweep out the rats. What did they forget to account for the tides? What a ridiculous boondoggle.

https://www.centcom.mil/MEDIA/PRESS-RELEASES/Press-Release-View/Article/3787939/high-sea-states-impact-army-vessels/

TAMPA, Fla. – This morning (Gaza time), four U.S. Army vessels supporting the maritime humanitarian aid mission in Gaza were affected by heavy sea states.

The vessels broke free from their moorings and two vessels are now anchored on the beach near the pier. The third and fourth vessels are beached on the coast of Israel near Ashkelon. Efforts to recover the vessels are under way with assistance from the Israeli Navy.

The IDF is supporting the recovery efforts near the pier. No U.S. personnel will enter Gaza. No injuries have been reported and the pier remains fully functional. We will release additional details as they become available.

Despite USN and USMC propaganda, the Army has done more landings and put far more men and material ashore via beach landings, than any other service.

You need to visit Fort Eustis in VA.  When I transitioned from an Infantry to Transportation Officer, I was astonished at how much the US Army possessed in sealift ability and assets.

They probably didn’t preload the maps in their OnX and got confused about property lines when they ventured out of cell service.

At least they can still get sponsored by NightForce.

I guess that would depend.

This mission was extremely unnecessary, stupid and risky. Having said that, it's also stupid for the right to poke and cheer as it goes bad. Just STFU for now and bring it up in October.

There's ways to do it properly and ways to do it wrongly.

I spent 3 years as a Beach Master working with landing craft, barge ferries, floating and elevated causeways, LCUs and LCACs, these things will happen. Once incident at Camp Pendleton years ago resulted in 2 broached/sunk 110' LCU landing craft and a destroyed Cat D-7 dozer.

The primary objection to this pier location was that it is unprotected and weather could lead to exactly this sort of thing.

As for the people that think the Navy should be operating water craft, go ahead and tell them. They don't seem particularly interested in small watercraft, and the Army has over 130 of them.

Whatever you do, don't Google how many Marines were at the largest and most important beach landing in history

Let's get the party started!
- 3 US casualties
- US Pier built
- US equipment on the beach
- American troops ashore

LOL, the US ARMY has conducted three times the number of beach landings as the Marines.

They are probably loading UP Hamas to bring them to the US. We need more foreign terrorists in our alien population. Hell, the feds will probably give them a gun and bomb making stipend to boot.

Army has (or had) a large number of landing craft and tugs.  My cousin was in the Army for 20 years and that's what he did.  Stationed in Hawaii for most of that.....tough duty

Yep, 5X more boots on the ground than Marines in the Pacific theatre during WWII. Something nobody seems to know or wants to hear.

So our military men and women knowingly spent millions of our tax dollars building infrastructure which will obviously benefit Hamas, and then managed to do a crap job of it, resulting in wasting even more money.

My freedom sure feels defended. Glad we have people to "just follow orders" like this.
