A female and/or SEX are involved in some manner.

My speculation is going in the same direction as yours -- it's either that or alcohol.

Yes, but not in NAVAIR.

Aviation screwups tend to delete themselves before they can be fired.

The "goat locker" is the boat's complement of Chief Petty Officers.

My bet:

It involves alcohol, "improper relationships" with Navy women, or some combination thereof.

Whoa!

I'd say the USS Jimmuh has potential for being a jinxed ship. (I mean, would YOU want to serve on it? It would just circle endlessly to the left . . . )

Presumably not married to the skipper...

Or maybe the captain just didn't want to be associated with Jimmuh Carter...

Can't say I'd blame him. ;-)

Yeah, that could cause problems in the chain of command...

Yeah, some PO'd Ell-Tee shooting the skipper in the wardroom is contrary to good order and discipline...

True. Using the reactor to heat your morning coffee could ruin your whole day.
