I never to found the factual story of that surrender of Navy personnel, so don't know if Obambi had much to do with it. Yes, I know about his cowardly ROE in Aftganiscrap and Iraq. In my Navy days (75-86), we were taught to fight at risk of life and limb against capture. Do you know what happened? A worse photo is them on their knees with beaten down expressions.
Weren't they on Kodiak with a 30 or 50 caliber? Yes, I should Google and not bother you.
Well that is, of course, a photoshop. I post to illustrate my disdain for Obama’s disdain for America and Americans.
As to what they were doing, why they surrendered, what they could have, should have, or might have done....I’m not the right person to ask.
