Two security contractors who were former Navy SEALS were found dead aboard the Maersk Alabama, this is the same ship that was manned by Captain Richard Phillips during a subsequent Somali pirate hijacking and standoff in 2009, a story which had all the hallmarks of a Hollywood rewrite was similar to the celebrated Bin Laden tall tale, Zero Dark Thirty in its apparent accuracy…
In recent years, Phillips has been heavily criticized for his role during the 2009 hijacking, causing many of his former crew members to speak out that he had fabricated his heroics aboard the Maersk cargo ship. In addition to Captain Phillip’s tales at sea, the Naval Criminal Investigative Service apparently never recovered the $30 grand that went missing after the hijacker’s were said to have seized it.
Polygraph’s were performed on high-ranking navy personnel who had been at the crime scene following the incident but nothing of substance has turned up.

The Phillips story provides a bizarre back drop for the mysterious deaths of two former Navy Seals aboard Maersk Alabama just this week.
In this latest case, authorities have identified the two men as Mark Kennedy and Jeffrey Reynolds, both ex-Navy SEALS who were found dead within a cabin aboard the Maersk Alabama on February 18th, as it was docked in Port Victoria, in Seychelles. Seychelles is a small island just northeast of Madagascar, known to the public for its white sandy beaches and luxury resorts. At the moment there is no stated cause of death for both security professionals but both men are believed to have been working on the ship since January 29th.
