I hope those dudes are striped of rank and thrown out.

They dun f_ _ked up. They acquired these skills for a reason, not to put it into a game.

Stripped of rank maybe, thrown out... no. You don't realize how much money it costs to train one, let alone 7 Seals and replace them by training a whole new crew who can work together as a fluid unit. It isn't feasible.

Yes, they screwed up and will possibly not be promoted again while in the military, but they can bounce back.
