"The entire tragic event elapsed in just forty-seven (47) seconds, and two NSW warriors were lost to the sea," according to the probe, using the acronym for Naval Special Warfare.

~lost to the sea~ they said i-cant

Moby Dick ass obituary in the report. Just a poetic natural occurrence, the delicate balance and capriciousness of the wilds; the deadly high-wire dance of life among the elements and that; definitely not just 2 imperialists jumping into the ocean with 40-80 lbs of gear and directly drowning themselves.

The two SEALs were identified as Nathan Gage Ingram, 27, who was posthumously promoted to Special Warfare Operator 1st Class, and Christopher Chambers, who was posthumously promoted to the rank of Chief Special Warfare Operator.

damn they promote you if you drown yourself? talk about mixed incentives. "1st class drowning there Chris!"

"We remain immeasurably proud of his heroic sacrifice in service of this Country."

to be fair it is a heroic sacrifice to drown yourself so you don't carrying out imperial aggression. Just like John Mccains family can be proud of his sacrifice when he blew up that US aircraft carrier, then crashed himself in the jungle and publicly admitted to the criminal nature of the US occupation of Vietnam.
