Please excuse my berevity. I felt that a quick sentence would have been a good enough explination for a casual reader, and they could have looked into the incident more thoroughly on their own time. I still believe that a company of Rangers would have made more sense than using Navy SEALs, because taking airfields is something Rangers are used for. I will agree that bad planning was the real reason, INCLUDING the part where they decided to use SEALs instead of Rangers. You have your opinion, I have mine.
