I wonder how far he was able to swim from the boat before being re-captured, if he was able to get a few yards away I don’t know why they didn’t turn the boat into swiss cheese as the captain swam away from it.
Surely they could have given the guy some covering fire with sniper rifles as he swam away then when he got far enough use a missile or rocket or shell to make the boat and occupants into chum.
You would think so. As time goes on it seems like more and more that the Navy is on stand down.
