English: A view of part of the superstructure of the Russian merchant vessel M/V Kapitan Man, in Puget Sound near Seattle, Wash., on April 4, 1997. The Department of Defense (DoD) recently completed its investigation of a suspected lasing incident involving this vessel on that date. The results of the investigation indicate that the eye injuries of an American officer are consistent with injuries that would be expected from exposure to a low level laser, such as a laser range-finder. However, there is no evidence to indicate the source of the laser or to link the officer's eye injury to a laser on the Kapitan Man.
