More officers and enlisted have been disciplined for their conduct in the January Farsi Island debacle, which lead to the capture of 10 sailors and two riverine command boats by Iranian paramilitaries.

Four officers and two enlisted went to mast before Navy Expeditionary Combat Command head Rear Adm. Frank Morneau. Of the four officers, two were found guilty of disobeying a superior and dereliction of duty, according to an NECC statement and given punitive letters of reprimand — a potentially career-ending move. A third officer officer was found not guilty of dereliction of duty.

Obama's half-assed Navy.

The very first statement made by the Secretary of the Navy when he was appointed was that his FIRST priority was diversity.
G-d help us.

I wonder for whom they are taking the fall?

That is an EXCELLENT question.  Those sailors were set up for some reason.  My personal belief is the guy who's video created Benghazi is the perp in this too.
