If he was back and trained, it might have been to costly for the company to send him out again, and he might have been able to stay. If even one guy had a chance to stay, why not try?

I can't believe how cavalierly you state that "you" made a decision to leave guys on the street when "you" could have brought them back.
I am shocked by his statement as well. I am no dpa supporter but this would prove their claim that dapla is just an extention of management. Who is any union volunteer to decide when another member can earn a living even if short lived?
