US SEEKS TO REMOVE PIRATES FROM SHIPS

Wow!!! Every time I read a story about Pirates, I just shake my head in amazement. Earlier this week, Pirates took over a North Korean tanker off the coast of Africa. The United States Navy went to the aid of the North Korean tanker, and ultimately ended up boarding the tanker to treat the wounded on the ship. Now the Navy is keeping its eye on a Japanese tanker that has been taken over by pirates off the coast of Somalia. Our Navy is incredible, but I bet the men and women in the Navy never thought they would end up battling pirates. Great story.
