Allegations from a single person do not normally lead to such a removal unless they have some hard proof...or, IMHO, unless it is a political witch hunt.

Doubt it's a political with hunt, despite the wishes among so many here that this would be the case.

"Inappropriate command climate" leads me to believe that misconduct took place at the lower levels and this Skipper was caught sweeping stuff under the rug. If I were a betting man with absolutely no inside knowledge of this case, I'd say proper maintenance procedures weren't being complied with and it was someone at the maintenance level who dimed him out with gundecked paperwork as the evidence.

maybe...

I believe it was a lower level a-hole (or 2!) that
probably did not like him-

Remember the Navy SEALS that were COURT MARTIALED!!
B.S. allegation that they PUNCHED a Prisoner ONCE!!

Finally cleared but career Even as a non-com ..ruined.

I have a hard time believing any flyby would allow gundecking of the maintenance logs formanplane he is taking into the sky.

This sounds a lot more like someone was banging an underling or hanging posters of Dallas cowboy cheerleaders or even knowing someone did this and not stopping it.
