They didn't read Sun Tzu.

If the soldiers fail to live up to your expectations, the first to blame is their officer, or you.

If you train them harder, fix the problems encountered but they still perform poorly, only then it's their fault.

That's why the hierarchy exists.

I'm not a soldier. I have a very good resistance to pain but I've never been through any sort of physical torture. I can't judge those sailors then. I would prefer them to be like Rambo and resist pain, suffering and torture for weeks. It's easy to condemn them for not being the Rambo we want them to be, but then again, if we're going to judge them as weaklings, we better enlist right now and show them how it's done. We better be prepared to offer the alternative.

Good diversionism. Forget about Iran, nuclear bombs and the like, let's focus on the British sailors!
