Mainly pride at a guess...
These guys are military types on an adventure training exercise, so they are not on leave - this is quite normal - I have colleagues who go skiing every year with the forces, and it is always counted as paid training...
They are there to pothole - therefore the visitors visas should be enough, they are not doing anything "military", this fuss would not have happened if they were civilians, but for the purposes of this trip, that is what they are... They are not representing the military, they are not doing military training.... I cannot see the problem here...
Just my 2c
