The Navy on Tuesday fired the commanding and executive officers of the Naval Justice School “due to a loss of confidence in their ability to command,” according to the service.
The commander, Capt. Amy Larson, and her deputy, Marine Corps Lt. Col. Brett Swaim, were relieved of their command “following an assessment of the current [Naval Justice School] climate,” the Navy said in a release.
“Neither officer was involved in misconduct,” the statement added.
The statement did not offer further details, though Navy Times reported that neither Larson nor Swaim is facing disciplinary action.
Located in Newport, R.I., the Naval Justice School is meant to train lawyers for the Navy and Marine Corps.

Not much detail given, the Commanding Officer, Navy Captain Amy Larson and her Deputy, a Lieutenant Colonel US Marine, are not facing any misconduct. Two the command has lost confidence in their abilities. The Commander, Captain Larson has only been commanding for 8 months. Obviously, in my opinion the students were not happy with this way the school is being run and someone spoke up.
