    I noticed that it was released by the "Acting Secretary of the Navy." I've been on leave the past week. Did something happen with SECNAV actual?

    I was pleasantly surprised about one (121's CO when 601 crashed) , and the other I know personally is probably going to be an Admiral at some point.

    I'm happy to see CDR Koss made the list after everything that happened. Great guy that definitely deserves to continue moving upward.

    CDR Koss was the skipper of the Blues that stepped down mid-season in 2011.

    They were putting on a fantastic show prior to the low altitude incident. Saturday's show was even better. Though that could have had something to do with the beer truck at my disposal...

    Supposedly the Blues are coming back to Lynchburg in 2013.

    601 CO was a different guy, a lot of JOPA were afraid that he'd get boned based off of a fatal E-2 crash happening in his command.
