Ghostnav,
You have two problems that I perceive; there is the issue that the press have become aware of what occurred. If the gentlemen had carried out their exercise in non sobriety in the hotel they stayed in then no problem. Remember public perception is important. As is the perception of governments who are monitoring the current military activity. Muslim nations really do not like alcohol, nor the visible effects. The perception of those who work in the military elsewhere is also important. I could write much about what those in FB's might feel, but I am sure you understand what they might feel.
The next problem is responsibility, command & leadership.
My apologies for being so brief and not fully responding to your posting.
