First of all, he should be thankful he had a good paying job. I am sure it was good paying because anything done on government project must be paid according to the local wage scale set by unions.

Second, $400million this creep is either causing the USN or the contractor or both not to mention the reduced military rediness as the sub will not be ready for quite a bit longer time than planned.

Third, he should be incarcerated for life in one of the ballast tanks.

Actually, as of 29 June, the Navy was uncertain as whether it would repair the Miama or scrap it:

From the Wikipedia entry:

“The Navy Department debated on whether to scrap the ship. Both US Senators from Maine advocated to repair it. The United States Navy has asked congress to add $220 million to the operations and maintenance budget for emergent and unfunded ship repairs which will be used to help repair the Miami. In addition The Navy is also seeking options to pay for the additional repair costs once it receives funding in 2013.”
