According to the Military Times blog Battle Rattle, a Marine Corps captain who participated in yesterday’s retaking of the M/V Magellan Star had this to say during a conference call with reporters: “As soon as the first stack of Marines made our way into the bridge, their hands were up, their weapons were down, they moved to their knees and they were compliant,” Captain Alexander Martin said. “At that point, they were pretty scared. One guy actually defecated himself. … He sh– his pants. I don’t know if that can go on the news or not, but that actually happened.” But in the pirate’s defense, I too would lose control of my bowels if 24 Recon Marines were coming after me. (h/t Tony)
