Wow, looking at that link, Crozier is worse than I thought. He wanted ALL 4000 sailors off the ship?? That's not possible, you can't leave a ship like that just sitting empty in fucking GUAM!!
And Modly's response was perfectly reasonable:
“I heard about the letter from Capt. Crozier (Tuesday) morning... we have been working actually the last seven days to move those sailors off the ship and get them into accommodations in Guam. The problem is that Guam doesn’t have enough beds right now and we’re having to talk to the government there to see if we can get some hotel space, create tent-type facilities,” Modly said.
“We don’t disagree with the (captain) on that ship and we’re doing it in a very methodical way because it’s not the same as a cruise ship, that ship has armaments on it, it has aircraft on it, we have to be able to fight fires if there are fires on board the ship, we have to run a nuclear power plant, so there’s a lot of things that we have to do on that ship that make it a little bit different and unique but we’re managing it and we’re working through it,” he said."
Man, Crozier sounds more and more like either a nut case or a shady political operative.
