Navy Fires Destroyer Commander Amid Investigation

I knew John personally; it was some years ago. I'd want to know more specifics about this firing before passing final judgement.

Unless his firing causes national or, in some cases, local news, it’s unlikely we’ll get more than that. “Loss of confidence” could encompass literally anything from he touched someone to killing someone. Too many variables.

The Navy frequently announces when a Commander is relieved, yet never share anything more than "... loss in confidence ... ". Inquiring minds want to know more!
