| Pentagon: US warships accompany British commercial vessels in Strait |
| 2015-05-05 |
Army Colonel Steve Warren, a Pentagon front man, said the US Navy had accompanied one British ship through the strait following talks between Washington and London and others would follow. The Navy has been accompanying US-flagged ships for several days in response to last week's detention of the MV Maersk Tigris. |

| #4 Knuckles, you are a piece of work. A jazz lyricist suffering a drouth Smelt a funky-butt breeze from the south And the muse in his rear Put his pencil in gear So the scat flowed onec more from his mouth. Also, Edmund Clerihew Bentley Was probably treated too gently. If parents and dons would've flogged him, His doggerel mightn't have dogged him. |
