(1) This show that ground commanders that are directly in charge and involved in the safety of their men and soldiers - will be responsible - if safety lapses occur that lead to injuries or death of their men and soldiers.

(2) Individual soldiers will also have to observe safety procedures to prevent accidents from occuring.

(3) Only when safety procedures are observed and comply by everyone during training - unnecessary accidents can be prevented.

If those 2 were to be charged for negligence then in some sense, Pang could have been charged if he were to be alive.

Hope they will be given a death sentence together with senior officer like a general or defence minister.

If you had followed this incident on the news more closely, it was mentioned that Aloysius himself presumed everything would be fine & have enough time to get out of the way of the barrel during its lowering. Therefore, it was a large act of negligence on his part too. Of course it could have been avoided if these 2 servicemen had known the procedures to stop the barrel from lowering any further, but don't just jump the gun & blame it all on the two of them.
