Clearly an attempt by the USN to create a distraction through the weekend news cycle from the renewed interest in whether one of their Aegis ships popped off a missile that shot down TWA 800 ...

He also only has 3 fingers on each hand.

Perhaps there is a relation.

It’s worse than that. When he was with the Red Sox I saw him “fly” horizontally about 15 feet to catch a line drive. Coco Crisp is really Batman.

My question is... what scandal prevented Cap’n Crunch and Captain Kangaroo from being promoted?

And, dammit... what rank is Popeye?

“That is: A captain has four stripes on his sleeve, while a commander has three.”

Yeah but the rest of his uniform looks legit.

The Cap'n , who noticed the uniform he wears on cereal boxes had the stripes of a commander, not a captain. That is: A captain has four stripes on his sleeve, while a commander has three.

1. Cartoon character

2. Not a USN uniform

3. Captain is both formal and positional. An Ensign in charge of a ship is the captain, although the Captain on the dock is a Captain, but not the captain.

4. NPR must not have gotten any Lefty faxes today, so they had to research the cereal box.

So I guess the big C on his hat only stands for Crunch.
That explains why it is not CC
