If I were the ship's company,
I don't think I'd want to serve

mother, anyway.

Cmdr. Sarah DeGroot told the head of Amphibious Squadron 3, Capt. Homer Denius, on Monday that she was resigning as the Rushmore's CO. Three sources were unable to immediately specify why she'd taken this highly unusual and likely career-ending move.

Someone tipped her off?
She’ll get promoted by President Valerie Jarrett . . . and get a promotion too
Could be anything, but I will say that it’s an incredibly intense job.
She’s a female. . .all that is required.
Quit her post, not filling a billet, out of the Navy.
Interesting. Thanks for posting.
When I was a DD JO I had a skipper that quit with a nervous breakdown. Then was diagnosed with cancer. He used to break out with hives under stress.
She musta lost the ‘edge’...
and...this is how Maverick and Goose get their shot to attend “Top Gun”.
Happy Thanksgiving.
The little snowflake couldn’t handle serving under President Trump, perhaps? PPTDS? Pre-President Trump Derangement Syndrome?
Leave “men” jobs to MEN ladies. We are the baby producers, they are the protectors!
Thank you men for protecting us!!!!
Navy has been under a lot of pressure. USS Zumwalt, over budget, numerous breakdowns, can’t afford the am,o for its guns. Navy quietly reporting that it is having problems keeping the ships running (maintenance, spares). An emphasis on expensive ‘green’ fuel, transgender changes, etc, instead of focusing on its mission.
A lot of career people are calling it quits on all branches.
Thanks. BUMP!
Beating a general court martial and a less than honorable dicharge.
Will we see a lot of these in the next two months, before Trump becomes our president?
Some are born leaders,some are born followers. Pressure just may have been too much for her.
Maybe she was hoping for an all lesbian crew and the renaming of the Rushmore as USS Lesbianna, aka Hillary’s Love Boat? Not going to happen now that Trump won. It is hard to float a commissioned naval vessel down the Boulevard of Broken Dreams, isn’t it Captain Snowflake?
Probably placed in command because she was a woman over better qualified men under pressure from the shitty Sec of Navy.
That’s a man.
She heard that the commie CIC was replaced with a real man’s man . . . and it askairt her. Good riddance! Hopefully more of the same will follow.
