My wife and I toured the USS Ronald Reagan in Japan. When we came up to the flight deck my wife asked our SIL (officer on the ship), “What is that ship over there?” After some confusion, my SIL said, “That is the Bridge of this ship.”

We saw the hanger deck empty, because the planes were all at a land facility. The enormity of that giant room was impressive.

He is responsible to make sure someone dependable is there and is doing the job properly. No excuses for the CO.

Unless there was some deep story, his career is over.

I'm surprised we haven't seen more of this. Some of these functional retards brought in under Biden are not even halfway through their enlistment.
