Drug Boat Strike

The most recent NDAA repeals the GWOT AUMF with strong bipartisan support.

We'll see if it has veto override power.

It’s an effort to repeal the 2002 AUMF (Iraq war), which isn’t relevant to this discussion.

compared to a state versus non-state actor during... AUMF, I suppose?

and whether or not heading would have mattered depending on the ROE.

If it was a maritime LE action (via maritime AUF), heading or turns wouldn't have any bearing (see what I did there). It's still a non-state actor operating in non-compliance and has met the ROE (via approval by TACON).

I completely understand the lack of clarity by the administration on what action this actually was, and thus the reluctance of members here to endorse it. I'm just giving you the historical precedent for the maritime LE side.

I bet it gets wild out by you, as you get further and further into the woods/middle of nowhere (that term being a good thing)

Well it is called WILDerness for a reason.

Bottom line, this should have been a F3EA thing, (find, fix, finish, exploit, analyze) thing. It’s what I did for three years of my life.

To the best of my knowledge, they just did F3. The only reason I can think of to not do the exploit/analyze is to get rid of the evidence.

Sink the evidence and fire the JAGs.
