Did they execute the soldiers who attempted to sabotage the spacecraft?

This whole scene played out very clumsily. The colonel's men arm themselves then we catch a glimpse of the saboteurs in the bushes and finally we hear gunfire outside the ship.

Yes it was explained later that they were turned over to the Aliens for anal probing.

It's not important for the story. The important part of that scene is the tension of the audience and the aliens knowing about the bomb while the human characters don't know.

Um, they were killed in the gun fight. You really needed somebody to tell you?
