Yeah, plus they all almost definitely have GPS location-finding devices and if not a radio back up the Navy can triangulate.
They were probably killed and the WH is telling the Navy to shut up and hopefully people will forget about it.
VBSS is done in full kit. You wear a flotation device but it typically has to be manually manipulated. If they were swept from the side while laddering in, they could’ve been unconscious, etc. after hitting. Regardless, if they’re likely at the bottom of the ocean for now.
