The cause was an electrical malfunction that created a series of explosions. The high ambient temperature made the fire even more dangerous, and the lack of effective firefighting measures made it all but impossible to stop. The board of investigation that followed determined that no disciplinary action was warranted against any personnel. This thoroughly researched report tells the story of those who perished in the fire and their loved ones, as well as hinting at the struggles of the investigators who tried to learn what went wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-14012363\"\u003eChief of Naval Operations\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-7455055\"\u003eFred T.
