Won't work. Like the Captain of a ship, no matter what happens, the guy at the top is responsible.

That's not logic, it's an empty slogan. By the way, if a seaman in the US Navy commits criminal assault on a fellow seaman, the captain of his vessel is not arrested for criminal assault. In fact, I've never heard of a navy in human history where it was customary to punish a commanding officer for the wrong action of a crewmember. Another fabrication of yours?

God chose these people, therefore he is responsible for their failings.

Incorrect - you assume that human beings are automata. However, they are not.

Perhaps you do not believe in personal responsibility and personal accountability for one's own actions.

If so, you'll have to make a coherent argument to defend such a socialistic concept.

You're knowledge of Navy history is deficient, like your reasoning. The Navy has numerous examples of the Commanding Officer being relieved of command because of mistakes or malfeasance by subordinates.
