He was due to retire in a few weeks. This is a giant gently caress you from the PACFLT Commander.

A giant goddamn gently caress you, really. Could have let the guy quietly retire without any blemishes on his record. Not now. loving :lol:.

I want to know when the squadron commander for those destroyers gets poo poo canned.

Nope. Unless he also did some other collateral poo poo they feel like hammering him with now , in which case he might only get a one-star pension instead of a three-star pension.

Being relieved of command is a career ending thing. But if your career is already at an end then it's nothing.

Yeah, but also even if your career wasn't over, being relieved anywhere at or very close to retirement years in is kind of a "game over, but here's your prize" kind of exit, rather than getting booted the gently caress out without a parachute.

I don't believe in anything, I'm just here for the violence.
Not going to lie, I'm incredibly shocked that C7F is getting the axe. Him being fired means that big Navy is pushing the narrative that OPTEMPO is the driving factor in this year's mishaps and if I was Aucoin I would be going down swinging because that's a cop out excuse.

While I can get where you're coming from, at the same time he's had 3 collisions and a grounding this year under his watch. That's bad.
