His vessel must’ve failed a supply inspection - yeah, that’s the ticket: Relieve the Captain at the slightest uncertainty.

Seems to be a lot of officers relieved of command latelyJust like the Red Army 1938, all that's missing is the the one-way ticket to The Lubyanka.

REMF=Rear Echelon MF. I posted before noticing he'd been in command nearly two years. There must have been a major screwup during an evaluation.
I had a Battery Commander who was a great staff officer, but terrible with troops. During a tac eval, he encoded coordinates wrong for one of our platoons. We almost flunked over that. I was XO, and I ripped into the platoon leader for not questioning the mission.
The last night of the tac eval, the BC basically checked out. I was angry at the lack of leadership from all platoon leaders, and I laid out step by step what each and every squad would do the next day...I had guided 3 platoons in my 18 months as a platoon leader, I knew the job of every squad member.
Little did I know that the chief evaluator was outside our CP, and heard everything I said. I bumped into him a few moments later, and I thought "oh crap." Instead, he gave me a big smile and said "that was beautiful, LT." We will passed, barely.

Talking to a bunch of fellow submariners...many who have served with this guy...
Not one negative word about him...all who served with him liked him and thought him highly competent...from his time on various boats as a JO all the way up to CO...
More to this story than what is being told.

Look at the up side.
Out of all of these demoted and relieved of duty CO’s we may find the next King Arthur.

EVERYBODY expects the Dorkbama inquisition.
The coup will come, or we are doomed.

Thanks for posting that. It’s apparent my initial assessment was wrong, big time. My apologies to the man.
