Great post!
Although I heard that one diver was killed making the trip over a mile under water earlier this week. The water is really turbid,dirty, loaded with sand, hard to see. But, if anyone can do the job,terribly dangerous at best, Thai navy seals have proven their worth and continue to do so.
Bottom line there is no other choice. More rains coming this week will fill the cave and at that point all die.

Info on the former Thai Seal who died:

“The deceased volunteer rescuer, identified as Saman Kunan, 38, was returning at about 1 a.m. from the chamber where the boys are trapped when he ran out of oxygen, passed out and died. Kunan had left the SEALs in 2006 to work at Bangkok’s airport as an emergency rescue officer.”
