[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.
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.

| #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. |

| #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. |
