Anti-American protesters shouting "Yankee, go home!" roughed up two or three U.S. Navy sailors in Istanbul, Turkey, near where the destroyer Ross is docked on an inlet of the Bosphorus Strait in the Black Sea.

 

Navy Secretary Ray Mabus called the attack "reprehensible" in a statement posted Wednesday on Facebook.
