I've made valid points here. Just because you work on a boat and will probably never have to handle an EPW you probably don't think it's a big deal.

The Army takes many prisoners and the rules detailing their handling are based in law. Because I believe in the rule of law I can't agree with LTC West's actions. What ever his punishment is doesn't matter to me, but I will argue to next light that his actions don't make him a hero.

That's funny, because I also happen to believe in the rule of law and I think his actions were entirely justified. To every rule there is an exception. Laws were not made to make us unthinking drones or slaves to government.
