US Navy Warship Commander Is Fired For Refusing To Get COVID Vaccine
Daily Mail ^ | 12/13/21 | Natasha Anderson

Posted on 12/13/2021 12:42:41 PM PST by Enlightened1

A Navy warship commander who refused to get the COVID-19 jab or submit to testing to prove he did not have the virus was fired from his job as the executive officer of the USS Winston Churchill.

Cmdr. Lucian Kins, 39, who was terminated on Friday, is the first naval officer to be fired over vaccine refusal.

He reportedly requested a religious exemption to the military's vaccine requirement, but was denied and is appealing the decision. 

The Pentagon has made the vaccine mandatory for all service members, and Navy personnel had until late November to get their shots or request exemptions. Thousands of service members have asked for religious exemptions, but so far none of the military services have approved one.

It remains unclear at this time if Kins will be reinstated to his position if his appeal is approved. He has yet to comment on his ousting.

Yep, let’s hope that when court re-adjourns in January that this kind of stuff is brought up. Maybe then something will be done. Maybe..........

“The Chinese” may be from China, I suppose , but it's just as likely he is as American as anyone can possibly be.

Lt. Cmdr. Han Yi is the nephew of China’s vice premier Han Zheng. (Joking-but would not surprise me).

Getting rid of them now, instead of waiting for them to refuse to fight other Americans?

Well, that’s 2705 troops that will not be coming to force vaccinate us.

“2700 religious waver requests,”

I guess there are not many religious people in our Armed Forces anymore. 2700 is a very low number.

You can't measure one's faith by whether they are vaccinated, nor if they request a waiver.

Religious exemptions for vaccines are extremely rare for all services. I saw medical exemptions all the time, but in 30 years, never saw an approved religious exemption. Telling your CO that you have "sincerely held religious beliefs" against this vaccine doesn't go over well when you have never had a problem with other vaccines before.

In 2020, Freedom of Speech was killed by the Traitor Media’s desire to cover up election fraud.

In 2021, Freedom of Religion was killed by the poisons called COVID vaccines.

According to goose-stepping pro-mandates fascists, The State has an inviolate right to inject citizens with everything that The State feels like injecting citizens with.

People who object to that are to be silenced, canceled, and banned from every aspect of life.
