American negotiators did the right things throughout the five-day high-seas drama that culminated with the successful rescue of an American cargo ship captain held by pirates off the coast of Africa.

Officials tried negotiating with the four pirates for the release of Capt. Richard Phillips, whom they had held aboard a lifeboat since Wednesday. But when his life was placed in imminent danger, three Navy SEALs aboard the USS Bainbridge were given the go-ahead to shoot the pirates who were still aboard the lifeboat.

Firing at night from the stern of a ship rolling at sea, the snipers killed the pirates. The fourth, who was not aboard the lifeboat then, is in American custody.

There were many heroes throughout the ordeal, beginning with Capt. Phillips. He put his life on the line when he offered himself as hostage to the save the rest of the crew of the Maersk Alabama when it was boarded by pirates on Wednesday.
