Prepare yourselves because I am about to sound like a moron, but I have to ask: if it’s a training exercise, why wasn’t an instructor monitoring it at depth?
Please be kind.

Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

Prayers for his wife and children. I’m sure such a man is desperately missed.

Brave men who were put into harms way due to bad leadership decisions at the local of the accident. Divers should be able to express safety concerns, whatever the situation without repercussions.

RIP sailors and prayers for the family and loved ones.
The report makes it sound like that unit was FUBAR (it’s not in a German dictionary)...
This was a training exercise for crying out loud, not an active mission...no reason to compromise 2 men’s safety and in the end, their lives.

I remember with pride, a US military that was about something besides politics.
