I'm not surprised at all, what he did was fucking retarded. I was on deployment during the swine flu outbreak and we had dudes quarantined in the Admirals quarters. The rest of us wore masks and cleaned the fuck out of the ship. The captain even became infected. You know what no one did? Blasted this shit to the media or any outsiders in any way. He had his chain of command down the hall ffs. The Navy takes these kinds of things extremely serious. I would lose faith in my Navy if he were not fired.

No doubt, I'd love to be a fly on the wall for that.

I don't know that that is the case....

But...

I wouldn't doubt it. This is how you think in current generation warfare.

Sounds like the soldiers that cheered this commander on joined during the Obama administration.

You can cheer for the man, and simultaneously respect and understand the decision.

My initial thoughts too until I heard that he CC'd over twenty people, and apparently neglected the chain of command (which is unknown if true yet).

But there's a lot of shitty leaders in the military. "Fag Dog" Fattis was one. After 8 years of Obama...

But Mattis was right! The Kurds were eventually slaughtered by the Turks, at a gun range in Kentucky, which aired on ABC, when the U.S. pulled out of Syria. His resignation predicted the whole thing.

The navy secretary just got the boot for his decision tho.

Idk if that's the reason, but, he followed exactly as he should have per the UCMJ.
