Owen Long
Lt Cdr Owen Long is a Royal Navy officer from Boston, Lincolnshire, currently serving as the navigator on the USS Winston Churchill, a US destroyer. His deployment is part of a longstanding tradition where British naval personnel are embedded with US forces. Recently, he has been in the news due to the UK pausing intelligence-sharing with the US regarding suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean, amidst concerns over the legality of US military actions that have resulted in extrajudicial killings. This pause in cooperation raises questions about the legal implications for British personnel like Long, who may find themselves involved in operations that could contravene international law.
