Yeah, especially in light of Hegseth's "no quarter" edict. Let's hope this doesn't become a "teachable moment" for him to realize the stupidity of that comment.
And if he was captured, Iran will then have a pair of aces in their negotiations with the U.S.: the Strait of Hormuz and now a hostage.

Iran's Speaker of the Parliament released a statement on the downed US F-15E fighter jet:
"After defeating Iran 37 times in a row, this brilliant no-strategy war they started has now been downgraded from 'regime change' to 'Hey! Can anyone find our pilot?
Please?' Wow. What incredible progress. Absolute geniuses."

These brave pilots signed up, gave the oath, knowing full well the
dangers they might face.
They most certainly would be embarrassed some civilian wuss would
make light of their mission if something went wrong.

Desperate Trump Pleads With World to Help Him ‘Make a Fortune’ With His War
In a bizarre post on Truth Social on Friday morning, the 79-year-old president claimed the U.S. could “easily” reopen the Strait of Hormuz,
“With a little more time, we can easily OPEN THE HORMUZ STRAIT, TAKE THE OIL, & MAKE A FORTUNE. IT WOULD BE A ‘GUSHER’ FOR THE WORLD???” Trump wrote in his latest missive.https://currently.att.yahoo.com/news/articles/desp...Recall, Trump the Conqueror was barking, for years, that the US should have taken all the oil in Iraq.

Careful! Our military is in danger of resembling that remark.
