Well, Capt. Jones didn't have to undergo a court martial procedure to explain how he lost his ship.

Capt. Pearson also appeared to be a sore loser and complained bitterly about his quarters aboard his late ship. He really only had himself to blame if they were not first class accomodations.

Capt. Fagan of the Jarvis Bay certainly deserved a VC for aggressively defending his convoy against a German battle cruiser with his armed merchant cruiser. He was hopelessly outgunned and much of his convey successfully escaped the Scheer.
