20 in one year? Is the Obama clan purging the ranks of those speaking out on gays in the military, and especially women on sub duty?

Bush fired 26 in one year. Probably part of the same conspiracy.

Was the CO the leader of a Blue crew or a Gold crew?

Not toeing the øScama line, methinks ?

If not for vested pensions, I wonder how many (of all ranks) would continue to put up with the traitorous piece of filth and the destruction of our military ?

They probably wouldn’t take the new secret oaths of office.

Well on a different link on that site they show the 19th one fired was done in by being drunk and slapping a subordinate.

Missles are expensive.

Cammanders are a dime a dozen.

Possibly it was due to the commander’s inability to abide
women or sexual deviants on his boat?

2006-2007 was the worst year for firing CO’s. It is cyclical. You give Obama way too much credit. Like he knows anything about being a CO....Yes he is Commander in Chief but really?????????????

“Angry that he was not invited to a group dinner, the commander of a Navy flight squadron hurled insults at subordinates and slapped another sailor several times while they were all drinking at a bar in Bahrain, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.”

Note- this is the 19th guy fired, not the one this thread is about.

I bet the CO of the VINCENSE will be fired soon. They just did a NCIS investigation and found 46 Sailors who were either using spice or selling it. BIG NO NO! I would bet anything his career is evaporating before his eyes.
