Great post zombie. But remember it is extremely rare for something to fall off a ship. It happens, of course, but it is rare.

Stuff is tossed overboard on nearly every single ship that travels the earths oceans. Not as much from US warships, but nearly every ship out there tosses trash overboard when they think they can get away with it. In certain areas in the far east and the Indian ocean I personally have seen trash trails from commercial ships miles and miles long just floating around.
