OOC: forgot this part.

IC: many of the IKN's smaller warships begin to comb the battle area at low speed. They lower netting down their sides to allow survivors from sunken ships can climb aboard, and are soon joined by numerous support vessels, and hospital ships once the mines are cleared. They pick up men from both sides, and while the USN sailors are stripped of weapons for obvious reasons, they are still given medical treatment that's the same as Coalition sailors.

Submarines begin making detailed sonar maps of the sunken vessels, selecting targets for priority salvage. Ships that are not too badly mangled are identified as candidates for repair and returned to service, other more mangled wreaks and the superwarships are slated for the scrap yard, and the worst mangled vessels are left on the sea bed. Of particular interest is raising a Colorado class battleship for analysis, and a search is on for Horizon class arsenal ships with intact missiles for reverse engineering.

Luckily in Neviston, the land based infrastructure has escaped relatively unharmed. All railroad and maglev lines escaped unscathed, and supplies are already being sent in for reconstruction of city infrastructure. Part of the admiralty building has been demolished however, but most of the high ranking staff were in protected bunkers below the building when it was hit.
