This is an interesting article from the NYT about two Navy helicopter pilots from Pensacola who diverted from re-supply missions early last week to rescue civilians in New Orleans. They saved more than 100 people. When they got back, they were scolded for leaving their mission for so long. It sounds like there are some servicemembers angry about the decisions made about how to use the available copters. From the article, it's hard to say who's right.
