  1. 12 hours later this navy ship is still burning, and beginning to list, in San Diego. It's more than likely going to be a complete loss. Luckily there seems to be only 21 minor injuries.

    USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD-6) is a Wasp-class amphibious assault ship, and the third ship of the United States Navy to bear the name.The primary mission of Bonhomme Richard is to embark, deploy and land elements of a Marine landing force in amphibious assault operations by helicopter, landing craft and amphibious vehicle, and if needed, to act as a light aircraft carrier.
