Unfortunately, piracy off the Horn of Africa is very common. What these pirates didn’t count on was the military background and personal initiative by the U.S. crew members. While negotiations are still underway to release the kidnapped captain, grave miscalculations on the part of the pirates allowed the unarmed crew to retake control of the ship.
Go Team America!

That is fantastic!!!
At last, that content on the tv, films and fiction, not to mention the actual background of these men came to actual usage!
Well let us see, ships are not allowed to use EVERY or just ANY weapon they need, insurance companies do not want to be liable for injuries or deaths, geesh, it is a miracle the seamen made it alive!
