The leaked memo also included information that disclosed - actual or proposed reductions

in the ship’s combat readiness, and should have been classified. Where was his concern when his ship was scheduled for a port visit in Vietnam during an outbreak of a dangerous infectious disease?

The letter was fine. The leak was a fireable offense, and the actual leaker should be court martialed.

What is supposed to be the connection between the crew liking the captain and the captain doing things that got him relieved of command? We keep hearing about the crew cheering the captain as he’s being relieved of command as if they have some sort of relevance, but I don’t get it. Is following the chain of command now only dependent on how popular you are?

The crew needs to be repremanded for cheering this, and this speaks volumes for the lack of battle readiness within the fleet.

His real sin was not using the vast resources under his command to deal with the problems. You can read all over the net where former navy colleagues have suggested a host of things he should have been doing instead of sounding abandon ship. He has a wealth of experience to draw from, a lot of creative folks who could have figured some things out, a crew capable of fabricating or building anything that needed to built, a whole medical department staffed with surgeons, nurses, corpsmen, and other medical doctors, etc. There are small cities with vastly less resources than this CO had.

Had he done those things and then asked for help with additional resources he needed he would have been a hero.
