Should the Australian Navy know the position of it's ships at all times?

[donnashuggy]

What is that saying, once is a mistake twice is a coincidence, I read 5 times last night.

Do you think they went into Indonesian Waters on purpose?

Did they get caught out?

Is the apology believable?

Was it just an accident that it happened 5 times?

[polksaladallie]

It was no accident.  They must have been obeying orders.  Whose?

[donnashuggy]

Yes that could be a likely possibility, I feel like we aren't being told the truth.

Dang you hate Australia and our border protection dont you......

WHY?

I feel sorry for navy personnel.  They signed up to obey orders from the top, but these orders must stick in their craws.  The morale of our defence personnel has taken a nosedive recently, and this won't help.

[donnashuggy]

They shouldn't have to break rules to stop the boats, that is a bit desperate

This is how are ships are operated; either the captain and crew are incompetent or Abbott and Morrison are lying.

The moral of the defence personal took a massive dive under Labor/greens as they tried their hardest to trash the defence forces.  Its now on the up and up under a real Govt... 

I have  2 friends who have sons in the Navy and I can tell you that the moral in the Navy has never been higher than it is now under the LNP and the fact they are NOW allowed to protect the Australian borders instead of playing water taxi to ILLEGALS as they were forced to do under the failed Labor/Green Govt...... Now that stuck in their "craws"  playing water taxi  and Labor/Green open borders.... 

The only people saying its at an all time low are the LEFT GREEN LABOR types who will stop at nothing to trash Australias borders and security and to run down our defence personal. 

Defence personal signed up to PROTECT our BORDERS  and thats exactly what they are doing.

Well done to the Australian Navy for doing what you signed up to do and being allowed to do it
