Explain warranted risk
WARRANTED RISK
Warranted Risk is the deviation from normal operations or policies when gains of a mission outweigh the risk of safety to complete a mission.
Damage to or sacrifice of the boat is acceptable risk in the defense of the United States, its citizens, and/or installations.
• The probability of saving human life warrants a maximum effort. When no suitable alternative exists and the mission has a reasonable chance of success, the risk of damage to or abuse of the boat is acceptable, even though such damage or abuse may render the boat unrecoverable.
