    USN helicopter, Aviator, off the USS Merrill, during this operation. A lot went down in a few days and it covered hundreds of miles all up and down the Persian Gulf. My hat is off to the primary planning officer for Surface Action Group Bravo, (and his staff) Captain Perkins. So you know, other operations that were planned for were called off. The reason is, the Iraq i's launched a major operation against Iranians on the Fao Peninsula. Thousands died. This is little known by most US Navy personnel who were a part of Operation Praying Mantis. The Iranians were reported to be going crazy: assuming that it was a coordinated general attack.

    I'm not sure how accurate it is, but Wikipedia says that Iran lost 5 ships, 3 of them being small speedboats. If America wiped out half of Iran's navy, would that mean that Iran's total navy in 1988 was compromised of 10 ships? Even Nicaragua has a bigger navy. I think the title is overreaching...
