“Iranian Revolutionary Guard forces captured the two high-speed patrol boats near Farsi Island, a well-known Iranian base, hours after the boats left Kuwait on January 12 with the intended purpose of sailing to Bahrain. Five sailors were aboard each boat. “

That's because the 12th imam, Commander Zero, gave the Iranians their gps location.

Hard to know what is true about the incident and what is the WH’s lies. Hard to know if the captain was following orders, if it was a set up and if he is the patsy or a total moron. What we do know for certain, he is Christain. If he was a muslim, we’d be reading he was getting a medal.

Commodore? I didn’t think the USN used that title/rank anymore.

Terrible but under LBJ, there were two even worse incidences:

1. On June 8, 1967, US Navy intelligence ship USS Liberty was suddenly and brutally attacked on the high seas in international waters by the air and naval forces of Israel. The Israeli forces attacked with full knowledge that this was an American ship and lied about it. Survivors have been forbidden for 40 years to tell their story under oath to the American public. The USS Liberty Memorial web site tells their story and is dedicated to the memory of the 34 brave men who died.

2. USS Pueblo captured - Jan 23, 1968 - HISTORY.com

History

On January 23, 1968, the USS Pueblo, a Navy intelligence vessel, is engaged in a routine surveillance of the North Korean coast when it is intercepted by North Koreans.

There is no commodore during peace time.
That’s a war time rank.

I’m trying to imagine how the helmsman not obeying an order to evade means the chain of command was unclear.

If the Commodore gave the stand down order rather than and order to resist and await help, he deserves the appropriate punishment.

Wasn’t the original plan to let the boss have a pass and make his deputy take the fall? The deputy must not have been on board with that.

They’ve given enough Navy commanders the axe over political issues during the reign of King Obamaboomba to lead two or three third-world navies.

Hopefully the Captain will get out of the navy and tell the truth.

That was quick. How’s that Bowe Bergdahl court-martial coming along anyway?
