Funny, the five bridge Officers stating the Captain tended "to fly the ship", seems to indicate a bit of SWO v Airdale lack of love?I was wondering about that as well, but when CO of the ship is the one who reported him (for other things, but still......) then I think that something more went on there than is in the article.

Could you elaborate on why "THAT would never happen"?THAT would never happen!
When I first heard about this back when the Admiral was relieved (and hearing that the CO had called the IG), my thought was, wow- I can't imagine how uncomfortable the ship must be if the Admiral and CO had that kind of relationship... I wonder if that contributed to any "tense-ness" on the bridge.

Right or wrong, it took a big set of 'cajones' to put his own BGC on report to the IG. Win or lose, nothing positive could come out of that situation... for anyone involved.
