Until they get more seatime, anything else is just pure speculation.

You can add in the Canadians. However, the context is that these were unit prosecutions, not force prosecutions, which are two very different things. Just because you can suceed against unit prosecution does not mean you can suceed against force, not by a long shot.

What do you mean by blue v blue? That's a term for friendly fire.
