Navy Captain Removed From Carrier Tests Positive for COVID-19

[NYTimes] Captain Crozier was fired after a leak of a letter he had emailed to Navy leaders detailing the service's failures in dealing with a coronavirus outbreak on the U.S.S. Theodore Roosevelt.

Breitbart adds:

Navy Secretary Thomas Modly fired Crozier on Thursday, after a memo he wrote urging Navy leaders to get sailors off the ship faster in Guam due to a coronavirus outbreak leaked to the San Francisco Chronicle, Crozier’s hometown paper.

Modly said Crozier was not fired for raising concerns, but for emailing the memo over an unsecured and unclassified system and cc’ing more than 20 people, including some outside the chain of command, and for not bringing his concerns to his direct superior, who lived on the ship down the hallway from him.

#1 'His direct superior who lived on the ship down the hall from him.' This joker just gets better all the time. A mighty precious stunt for a man with that kind of responsibility. So far from wondering about his being relieved how the Hell did he get there in the first place.

#3 Did the ship medical officer approve shore leave in Vietnam with no social distancing instructions?

If so, there is another person to look into.
