Actually they were not reprimanded. After their first supply drop, thye picked up a transmission asking for helicopters to help rescue folks on rooftops(can't recall from whom--NOPD maybe) After rescuing folks and touching down, they radioed their commander-who told them it was alright to proceed untill the nightime curfew--which they did--then they returned to their home base. Their commander gave them a verbal dressdown for disobeying orders--stating that the supply mission was just as important, or something along those lines--but no "formal reprimand" was issued. One is curently on downtime between missions, the other is already doing other missions--part of which was being in charge of a kennel for animals left from the flood--which is normal "collateral duty" and not punishment.
