The commanding officer of a U.S. naval vessel is ultimately responsible for everything that happens on his vessel. That is the way it has always been.

In the USN the buck trully stops with the Captain of a vessel.

Exactly!

There will be no "Act of God" decision in this hearing. ;)

Seems like a good way to lose good men.
