The ten U.S. sailors who were seized by Iranian gun boats when they drifted into Iranian territorial waters have been released without incident. It appears that one of the boats suffered from some type of mechanical failure, and negotiations for the sailors release were quickly accomplished. It helped that the Farsi Island location at which the boats were found drifting was neither a strategic location, nor a sensitive location for communications or other military activities.
A video has surfaced wherein one of the sailors appears to be apologizing for the accidental incursion, which could complicate things for the sailors.

Same Codes apply to our “So called Leaders” Obama and Kerry. The worlds best Boot Kissing Jackasses!
Name, rank, serial number. Nothing about an apology.
Just like the pilot’s.
if you think that the engines actually failed and Iran didn’t act aggressively you are another kool aid drinker. “Big Boat”?? these boat engines don’t both fail…and they also don’t lose all communications on board.

The code of conduct only applies to wartime captures.
