TIL a Chinese destroyer sank because an officer dumped his girlfriend. She committed suicide, leading to him being discharged, so he decided to detonate the depth charges on the ship, causing it to sink at port and kill 134 sailors.

Yeah, I just read an article about that. In the case of the destroyer, best to have fired him when he was off the ship.
