Final narrative
An employee was inside a mid-level ballast tank onboard an amphibious transport dock (naval vessel). He was walking across the deck and stepped onto a board that was covering an open hole. The board split and the employee fell about 15 feet to the bottom of the tank. He sustained internal bleeding, a brain hematoma, and fractured the C6 and L1 vertebrae.
