and it is the Seal Team Leader who is directly responsible for Shots
Fired....



And, I don't care who you are.....Would you tell him no?....(c;]

Yes, absolutely, if I was given a ILLEGAL Order, that violated MY MISSION
Rules of Engagement, which were defined BEFORE I left Base, by my Direct
Commanding Office. There is a Strict, Top Down, Chain of Command for
Seal Teams on Detached Missions, and the Capt. of the Transporting
Vessel, can only get in the middle of that Chain of Command, IF in his
judgement, the actions being contemplated, put HIS "Vessel or Crew" at
Risk, and then he would have to explain his actions to a Board of
Inquiry, that would be called to inquire into his violating the Seal
Teams Chain of Command. A very good way to lose your command, if your
not careful.
