COMPLETE lack of leadership from the top down

YEP! And the first thing a good leader would have done is ensured that his OOD knew how to drive their ships which he would have done by spending a lot of time doing man overboard drills which you do by throwing a bunch of life preservers and/or junk overboard all tied together while steaming at full of flank speed and then practice maneuvering to pick it up, over and over and over again until the OOD can do it by eyeball unaided by CIC.

It's like teaching someone to drive a $2B car.

I agree. Three incidents means that the rot is deep in the Navy and needs to be excised.
