Bravo!  Bravo!

An American ship captain was freed unharmed Sunday and three of his captors were killed in a daring rescue by U.S. Navy Seals that ended a five-day standoff between the world’s most powerful Navy and Somali pirates in a lifeboat far off the Horn of Africa.

Capt. Richard Phillips was in “imminent danger” of being killed before U.S. Special Operations forces shot the pirates in an operation personally approved by President Barack Obama, U.S. officials said.

But it should not have lasted this long.  The captain is alive and free…pirates are dead and floating….a new manual needs to be written and understood on this situation.  The situation should have never lasted 5 days.

The captain should be making his rounds very soon on the airwaves and we will hear the rest of the story……(thank you Paul Harvey for the line).
