Phillips rescued; 3 pirates dead. Bare bones here: short version is that Phillips apparently went over the side again and the Navy did the rest. 3 dead, 4th captured, and that’s pretty much just the way you want these things to go. See also AoSHQ. Crossposted to RedState.
Great! Go Navy!
Bad link though.
Try it now.
But…but…we were supposed to give diplomacy a chance first! Didn’t the USN get the memo? 😀
