A battle brewing(not really but there have been instances) from season 1 episode 1. Jason v Clay Spencer. After talking about it with his wife and teammates Clay is ready to hold Jason to account for his actions in different operations that compromises the team's safety. These actions are a result of years of brain injuries in combat.
I think Clay has a duty to himself, his wife and his baby, on the way to report Jason's mental slips and not just a duty to them but to the people, he actually fights with and for. Based on the show reporting your teammates might be bad in some cases but I'm not thinking this is one of them.
SEAL team writers have remained committed to telling the stories of Traumatic Brain injuries and the support warfighters need to deal with these issues. The way Jason's story is being told is not comparable to the way Swanny's was in terms of quality writing but an important story nonetheless.
Conspicuous Gallantry for me is Clay's moment to show that he might have the leadership quality and can make tough calls. The information from his team leader and teammates contradict and he took the time out to get the truth. While he didn't report Jason which is the ultimate tough call I credit him for getting to the truth.
I'm never a fan of episodes that have way better endings than start and middle but I'll give this once a pass because the ending was funny and I laughed when the two were leaving the hospital.
