If I were Capt. Phillips, I would have asked him one question: “What the hell took you so long?”
That's not even the right question.
"Why did it take three trys for the Seals to finally solve the problem Mr. President - it was because you never authorized action wasn't it?" The Captain of the Bainbridge had to take the risk - because you never authorized it - am I right Mr. President...sir?
I heard the Captain’s thank you response on the radio. He expressed his gratitude to the SEALS and the ship, and for the prayers of all. He did not mention BO.
