Captain of the USS Cole forbade live ammo on deck:

AFTER the explosion, while there was another terrorist Zodiak visibly still tooling around there to finish them off.

The gun crew that ran up there had to menace them away with an EMPTY weapon, per orders of the Captain.

They were dumb-founded at the stupidity.

There once was a time in our history when Americans were
known for being tough, shrewd and hard to get the best of.
