Assswipe navy sec. resigns

He even riled up generals and admirals, not a smart move.

If the you are a captain of a ship of war do you let the sailors off the ship during a pandemic?

The captain of the Roosevelt, Brett Crozier, sent copies of his plea to people outside the chain of command, which is how the story was leaked in the first place. As far as I am concerned, he screwed up royally and deserves to be fired.

But I see Trump intervened

@Earl-of-Trumps
He went up chain but they ignored him. So what branch of service did you serve?

At least the mislead right-wingers here defend the honor of our country. One would think that all veterans would. They may be idiots. But they're OUR idiots.

Kissing an enemy's ass is very trumpian.

Americans have always had disagreements with each other. This will not change.

But, trying to be "friends" with an enemy who's only interest is the disparagement of our nation is at best, naive. At worst, collaborative.

@WOLFE63

Were you ever in the military?

@Eladar
You want to see my DD214, if you even know what that is.

Yes.

@WOLFE63

Your military did not have rules about the chain of command?

@Eladar
"Your military''. That says right there you never served in anything. It's not 'YOUR' military is it?

He is not from the US numbnuts.

let's try it this way...

he went up the chain of command _and_ beyond that. He dispatched the message to too many people.

He went outside his chain of command. That is not acceptable behavior in the US military.


If you want to go outside your chain of command you resign your commission and do so as a civilian.

agreed and I don't know what the fuss is.

the guy screwed up big time. everyone knows the Roosevelt is INOP right now

@Earl-of-Trumps

God forbid the world should know of the problems the Pentagon wanted to bury. Tell me, how do you stop a pandemic on an aircraft carrier where sailors are stacked 3 deep in the hold?
