That is exactly what the Cole crew should have done. Oh! wait Clinton did not allow them to have ammo in their weapons.

Klinton didn't allow access to armor or apache gunship support during the Rangers, SEALs and Delta missions in Somalia either.
Blackhawk Down would have been a very boring movie had the troops been properly supported with tanks and apaches.

Oh! wait Clinton did not allow them to have ammo in their weapons.That is usually done through the military chain of command. The guards on duty at the US Marine barracks in Beirut in 1983 were not allowed live ammo the day the suicide truck crashed into the building. Who's watch? Ronnie Reagan.
