Why the USS Roosevelt’s
Captain Had To Be Relieved

Original Article

Posted By: MissMolly, 4/3/2020 4:59:13 AM

The decision of American Navy to relieve the captain who warned publicly of coronavirus on his nuclear-powered aircraft carrier strikes us as the right move. We get that it’s a sad setback for an officer in an incredible command. The minute we read the captain’s letter about the crisis on United States Ship Theodore Roosevelt, though, we saw it as a breach on a matter that should have been kept within the chain of command. That’s easy to say, we understand, for a newspaper whose landlubber of an editor can’t go to Jones Beach without getting seasick. We’ve followed the reports that Democrats on the House Armed Services Committee

His boss was a couple of doors down the hall...but he chose to send out a non-secure email so that it would be leaked to the press? Maybe it was necessary...and if so I commend him for putting his crew over his career! If he just went over his bosses head without a discussion, however that is NOT cool!!! We will never know the truth! Even if the press finds it...they will never report it unless it makes Trump look bad!

#1, oh yeah, he’s been “fired.” It takes a while, but he’s out. Normally, a captain given command of a carrier is on his way up—he’d get an important staff job in Washington next, get promoted to rear admiral, then executive officer of a carrier task force after that, command of the task force after that.... But now he'll get a staff job in the pentagon doing something like making sure our plans for the invasion of Botswana are kept up to date. He won’t be promoted to vice admiral after three years, and will fail to be promoted the following period—then he will be forced to resign. It’s up or out. If he already has twenty years in, he'll resign ASAP. He knows he’s done.

Hes not a brand new swabbie right out of high school. Hes been around and knows the system well. He would not have written that letter if he believed the military was taking his concerns seriously. Paper pushers very often blow off the concerns of the people who do the real work. Remember when the soldiers couldn't get body armor? Regular citizens started sending it to them and embarrassed the army into finally sending it. This captain was doing what he had to, to take care of his sailors and his ship. He put them above his career and will pay the price for his loyalty. He should be promoted, not drummed out.

From this article it seems the skipper was, at a minimum flummoxed, at max he was panicky. If carriers and the air group are at the tip of the spear as advertised, then readiness for war is paramount. He did a "reply all" and that was that. Not following the chain of command is a no-no, and we don't know if he was ignored or not. I saw the same thing on the part of a few officers during the H1N1 flu. Here we had service members in combat around the globe and these guys were acting like 8th grade school girls who were scared of their own shadows - like now.

#2 Yes his boss was just a couple doors away. That says that the two undoubtedly talk about many things, including this. There is a distinct possibility that the Captain didn't get any help from his immediate superior and decided, career be damned, and send this letter the way he did. I really believe there is much more to this story than what we have been allowed to see. Not unusual in this world of managed news.

So, please tell me CAPT what you would have done if the same thing occurred during the normal flu season? You would have had your crew treated medically and make the best of it. So, why is this any different? It isn't. This CAPT should be ran out of the Navy. No sympathy here. He must be an Obama holdover. Also, the 50 crew members that tested positive are young and most likely do not have an underlying condition. They will probably recover just fine.

Career ender for any COs relieved of command. There is only 12 of these command opportunities, carrier COs. Correct call would have been isolate the infected crew, continue testing while keeping the carrier at sea. Continue SITREP to chain of command on the secret network, ask for assistance as necessary. I am sure he would have gotten it flown onboard. It’s a front line carrier on deployment for God’s sake! Here comes CNN analyst job for this guy.

No-one that made it to that chair made this 'mistake'. This was a strategy. 1. Play to the media to embarrass President Trump and become a Democrat hero overnight 2. Return home to a Democrat heavy district and run for office by reminding everyone over and over again that he is a veteran (Kerry/Butty) The quicker he can exit the military and enter the weekend news talk shows - the better for him.

This letter that sounds so simple now was headlined as "Captain PLEADS for help". It characterized his crew as dying and NO ONE would listen to him. My impression was that it was politically motivated to make his chain of command up to the Commander in Chief look incompetent and inept, and that HE was the only one who "cared". For the optics alone, were I his CO I would have been putting my aircraft on his deck asap with his relief. That letter was purely politics.

Sorry, this captain absolutely deserved what he got. In considering the safety of his crew with respect to the number of potential casualties, his panic was completely unjustified. Sailors at sea are not in risk factor categories - they are young and healthy. The ship might have been weakened if a fair number were simultaneously sick, but not mortally wounded. Even if too many were sick for operations to continue, he could have pulled into Guam without alerting our enemies that the carrier was not operational. The world is becoming more dangerous. Every high-ranking officer is aware of China's vast military build-up. The Chinese view us as wounded with our economy in shambles. We do not need to tell them our military readiness is compromised as well.

As a former Surface Warfare Officer, serving aboard a guided missile destroyer and guided missile cruiser, I totally agree with relieving this CO for cause. He should have handled this within the chain of command, and never have publicly indicated a lack of combat readiness of his command. This is a case of poor command judgement, and should never be tolerated by our Navy.

#1, do you think being removed from a major command isn't "fired"? His career is over. Back when my father was a USN officer, decades ago, a senior officer who was relieved of a major command like this would be moved to the command of a naval base somewhere. Sounds like not too big of a come-down, right? Until you find that the ships or planes on the base, and all the people to fix them and operate them are NOT under his chain of command, and almost the only thing he does command is the gate guards and the folks who mow the lawns. After a few years of that....retire.

The combat ready status of a deployed aircraft carrier is normally highly classified national security information, even though the combat ready status of the ship was caused by a natural epidemic or a possible bioweapons attack on the USA, and the ship’s crew, by unidentified foreign actors. In accordance with common sense, naval regulations, and traditions of the Navy such national security information should have been considered to be highly classified information by the Ship’s captain, who instead composed the letter in question and then distributed it, not only to his chain of command that was already working on the problem, but also among reportedly to about 20 of his friends via insecure e-mail channels. Clearly one of the recipients of letter then leaked it to the media. That’s where the rub came in, and caused the Navy to loose confidence in the Captain’s ability to continue to command that ship because of his demonstrated obvious lack of judgement when under stress.

He made a big-time mistake. Period. Not at war? Only because the strategic asset he's been entrusted to command is out there. It's called "presence" in Naval vernacular. The fact is, many of his young and healthy crew are in more danger of dying on the flight deck during ops than from this virus. #30 - not "normally". The material and personnel readiness of a deployed warship is ALWAYS classified information. The ChiComs are no doubt high-fiving one another this week. Without even trying, they managed to chase a nuclear-powered carrier and its wing of strike aircraft into port.

This guy was captain of an enormous ship that cost $4.7 to build in 2007 dollars. He has a couple of billion dollars in planes and equipment aboard the ship. He has responsibility for enough personnel on board to fill a good-sized American town. Yet he lets himself get panicked by a virus that rarely kills young people of the age of his sailors, pilots, and other personnel. His panic reveals his unworthiness to captain such a magnificent craft with such a crucial mission.

#28, the most common way that a ship's captain got relieved years ago was running the ship aground. The standard joke was that they when they gave them command of a Navy base "See if he can run THAT aground!".

Seven people, all from different households, not only gathered for Thanksgiving but distributed to the media pictorial evidence of them flouting mask mandates and social distancing edicts. No governor yet claims jurisdiction over the International Space Station but the astronauts have a lot of explaining to do when they return to earth. It’s not as though they lacked for space. Governors ordering around people 250 miles above their states seems far-fetched. But so, too, did the notion of governors usurping the role of legislatures.

Will Joe Biden and his foreign-policy team accept the extraordinary gift Team Trump is leaving for them under the Christmas tree — or is their hatred for the president so all-consuming that they will toss it in the garbage? I’m talking about the Abraham Accords, peace deals between Israel and various Arab states — the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan — that have sought the Jewish state’s destruction since its founding in 1948. Normalization has proceeded so quickly, Dubai already has a kosher restaurant, and its supermarkets are stocking Israeli agricultural products festooned with Stars of David — a science-fictional sight only a year ago.

The practice of democracy in our constitutional republic flourishes in the presence of contradictions. Democracy, itself, is bound by our inalienable rights, bestowed to us by our Creator. These rights, not given to us by our government by any majority or by any vote, cannot be rescinded, for they were not wrought by man. Voting is a contradiction for it is both public and private at the same time. Its process is intended to be secret, but transparent. Its agency is intensely partisan, but its effect is intended to be unifying. The legitimacy of voting must survive despite the contradictions intrinsic to the process.
Trump’s Flynn Pardon:

Will Judge Emmett Sullivan accept President Trump’s pardon of General Michael Flynn? No one has suggested that possibility, other than The New York Sun. The general’s case, though, has become a bonfire of the vanities of one district judge who has denied the presumption of regularity to an official act of the United States government — meaning Attorney General William Barr’s attempt to drop the case. So why would Judge Sullivan credit President Trump’s workaround of a pardon? We understand, the pardon could be the least fettered of all the powers that the Constitution grants to the president.

Many conservatives have moved their social-media accounts to the more freewheeling Parler, and often have slammed the supposedly monopolistic Facebook and Twitter as they’ve decamped from those sites. I have chuckled at some of their overheated parting rhetoric — especially the widespread misunderstanding about the meaning of the word “monopoly.” A monopoly is, as the Oxford dictionary explains, “the exclusive possession or control of the supply of or trade in a commodity or service.” Quite obviously, if one stops doing business with a company and heads over to its competitor, then the previous company is not by definition in exclusive possession or control of a service.

There, Democratic incumbent Anthony Brindisis is locked in a recount with Republican Claudia Tenney, who previously held the seat before him. The race gap between the two has come down to the point where Tenney is leading by 106 votes and the only ballots left to possibly be considered are the ones that were “set aside” during the initial count due to irregularities.

His wife, as the person closest to him, should have been the one to call the campaign quits in order to reduce stress on the man.
