>>Because I know myself would break under torture, I would never take a mission where capture by the enemy is a likely outcome. Only a person with an iron constitution should take such missions.
I agree. One of the reasons I chose submarine duty is that you either get back to port or you die quickly.
You probably know as a bubblehead, that didn’t always work out that way in WWII for our submarine crews, though...times do change.
And 99%+ of the time, your Manichean choice of die or get to port is true in any case...
