If what you’re saying is true, then the FIRST report would have found cause. But it didn’t. It recommended reinstatement…the chief of naval operations was getting ready to have a press conference to announce it when Esper stepped in. Not normal buddy.
At the very least the spineless CNO should have been more attune to the political landscape and had his first investigation board make up reasons to sack Crozier. Thus saving the CAPT from getting nationally disparaged twice. But then again I think people can see what this is and understand Crozier is, in fact, a great American.
