Men and women of course make the whole of the services work. But attrition of crew is different that attrition of a ship. It is not that he had a **** sandwich handed to him; he did, it is how he asked for help that was cause for relief.

How do you think the 4 admirals in the direct chain of command below the sec. of the Navy felt ???
They were in charge of that captain, nobody else.
Its about chain of command in the military, don't try to parse on behalf Orangehead.
The chain of command was broken from the top to punish the captain.
That aircraft carrier should be parked @ Guam, evacuate the sailors home, and guard it with the USMC, then tell the world there is a NO fly zone there until further notice. real simple leadership stuff, instead of petty political retribution from a five time deferment rich punk
