re: #485 rhino2

It’s a troubling matter to say the least. From what I understand, the SEALs wanted a court martial instead of administrative action. However, any outcome is likely to result in these three SEALs ending their career with the special forces.

The SEALs busted the lip of a guy involved in the murder of four Blackwater guards in Fallujah. Is that grounds to end their careers? I don’t think it should, but you can’t ignore their duty to do the right thing either.

And in the future, soldiers will consider not taking prisoners rather than face prospects that put their careers in jeopardy, particularly when it comes to taking prisoners.
