    It’s a really interesting story. 600 infected sailors. The captain calling out the admiralty for not evacuating sooner. The Captains CO firing him. Then the CO getting fired by the government. I feel bad for the crew.

    Well I want to know if they are all being treated like these personnel.

    This video is pretty cool, of his welcome ashore, following his sacking - love how he manages not to strut. (it goes on a bit!)

    It's a film in the making, hopefully not part of a bigger one !
