..."According to a statement from the Navy, Capt. Jeffrey Lengkeek, Cmdr. Michael Jarosz and Command Master Chief Matthew Turner of Amphibious Construction Battalion 2 were relieved on Feb. 3 by the commander of Expeditionary Strike Group 2 “due to loss of confidence in their abilities to effectively perform their leadership roles.”
Lengkeek, the commanding officer, and Jarosz, the executive officer, had both served in their respective positions since July 2020. Turner had served as the battalion’s command master chief since July 2019.
A public affairs officer for Amphibious Construction Battalion 2, Lt. Cmdr. Paul Newell, said Monday that the relief was the result of a “formal command investigation.” All three have been temporarily assigned to the headquarters of Navy Region Mid-Atlantic at Naval Station Norfolk in Norfolk, Virginia.
Amphibious Construction Battalion 2 is one of two such “Seabee” battalions in the Navy and is based at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek, in Virginia Beach, Virginia."...
