The reason for the shootdown has been disputed between the governments of the two countries. According to the United States government, the crew of USS Vincennes had incorrectly identified the Airbus as an attacking F-14 Tomcat, a U.S.-made jet fighter that had been part of the Iranian Air Force inventory since the 1970s. While the F-14s had been supplied to Iran in an air-to-air configuration,[4][5] the crew of the guided missile cruiser had been briefed that the Iranian F-14s were equipped with air-to-ground ordnance.[6] Vincennes had made ten attempts to contact the aircraft on both military and civilian radio frequencies, but had received no response.[7]
According to the Iranian government, the cruiser negligently shot down the aircraft, which was transmitting IFF squawks in Mode III, a signal that identified it as a civilian aircraft, and not Mode II as used by Iranian military aircraft.[8][9] The event generated a great deal of criticism of the United States. Some analysts blamed the captain of Vincennes, William C. Rogers III, for overly-aggressive behavior in a tense and dangerous environment.[7][10] In the days immediately following the incident, US President Ronald Reagan issued a written diplomatic note to the Iranian government, expressing deep regret.[11]

He made a choice and it was the wrong choice. He biased his choice towards his men living to see their families. Leadership isn't the grand job that folks think it is.

Rogers seems like the type who enjoyed being in command for the sake of being in command. Some turds really do float to the top.

They're alive. He didn't gamble with their lives in that instance to protect his career. I'm not defended the fact that he fucked up royally, but I'd sleep well knowing he'd put my life above all else.

They wouldn’t have been killed if they didn’t shoot down the plane. That’s completely fucked up logic.
