NPR's Martha Raddatz reports on the decision by the Navy to ground all F-14 fighter planes for the next three days. An F-14 Tomcat crashed in the Persian Gulf near the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz today. There were no fatalities in the crash today, but seven people died in two other F-14 crashes in recent weeks.
