Taiwan Searches for Sailors Swept off Navy Submarine

"Rescuers in Taiwan continued their search for three missing sailors on Friday after six officers and crew were swept off a submarine's topside the previous day.

Three non-commissioned officers assigned to the Taiwanese navy's Hai Lung-class submarine the ROCS Hai Hu were among those attempting to recover a piece of lost equipment when the mishap happened, Taiwan's navy said.
Taipei, which is gearing up for more military challenges from neighboring China, has reported accidents among its armed forces each year as training has intensified. It was the second such incident on a Hai Lung-class submarine in 14 years." MS
