9. The SEAL who actually killed the young prisoner

is a MEDIC. He was in the process of attending the man's wounds when Gallagher pulled out his KBar and stabbed him multiple times in the throat. At that point, there was no saving the young man's life. IMO, the MEDIC put the prisoner out of his misery. Don't misunderstand, I'm not condoning what he did, but there was no way he could save the guy.

The question that trumpie should have been asking himself - and it is obvious the other SEALS did - is WHY Gallagher did what he did while the MEDIC was obviously trying to minister to the guy ? The man was lying prone of a gurney, unarmed and not making any movements. At that time, he was no threat to anyone. Gallagher is a rogue murderer, a creature of pure evil. This is not what SEALS do, and this is not who they are.

What troubles me is this -- how many other loose cannon psychopaths are out there and will now see this as acceptable ?
