"We are not at war. Sailors do not need to die. If we do not act now, we are failing to properly take care of our most trusted asset — our Sailors," Capt. Brett Crozier wrote in a memo to the Navy's Pacific Fleet, three US defense officials confirmed to CNN.A US defense official told CNN earlier Thursday that 114 sailors from the USS Theodore Roosevelt have tested positive for the virus."Decisive action is required.
"CNN previously reported that some of the sailors from the USS Theodore Roosevelt will be quarantined in hotel rooms in Guam as the number of coronavirus cases aboard the carrier continues to increase.On Wednesday Modly said 1,273 of the ship's roughly 4,800 crew members have been tested for the virus so far and the Navy was still awaiting the results of some of those tests.
He’s a hero! He put his career on the line for his service men and women!
If only the Navy cared as much about these sailors as their captain does😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Because the important thing here is NOT the lives of his men and the safety of an aircraft carrier (and potentially an entire battle group) but the fact that he MAY have leaked a memo trying to save those lives?
USNavy Shame on you for removing the commander asking for assistance to save his crew. I, for one, applaud him for putting his crew's lives ahead of any internal politics.
Not cool
من اين اتى الفايروس لهذه ... انه غضب الله على الجيش الامريكي الارهابي الفاسد
I would have headed to the nearest port and docked then walked to the nearest hospital to have my men looked at. what could they do they fired me already?
If he did it, that was the right thing to do. It might save lives of our sailors.
I recommend Captain Crozier have a position in President Biden's cabinet.
WTF America?
Sounds like what happened to the messenger doctor in Wuhan.
Cnn always doing everything to attack the United States and create conflict . Nothing about Russia or China or North Korea
Commander Crozier is relieved of duty bc he tries to save the lives of his men? What are you USNavy, nuts 🧐? That's exactly his JOB. It's TraitorTrump & SECNAV who shld be relieved 😡RepAdamSmith
You know who needs to be removed from duty, Donald J. Trump, any navy commander who does not protect his sailors, who ignores a Capt. of a ship who is trying to protect his sailors. That is who needs removed and prosecuted, not a Capt. doing his best.
There is no place in government or the military for LEAKERS!
I have much admiration for this Commander. He put his crew before his career. I hope realDonaldTrump tried to intervene here. If he can pardon that pathetic excuse of a Navy Seal, Gallagher, he can stand up for a Commander trying to save his crew during a medical crisis.
should be court martialed
Yep truly CNN lying report. Contrary to your report I see nothing where the Com.of the FR is expected to be removed except for CNNs headline. “that if it turned out the letter was leaked “ “ if -- if -- if he were responsible “ “But, I don't know that.” Where’s removed from duty
If he gets removed, There is a SERIOUS PROBLEM for A LEADER TRYING TO SAVE HIS CREW!
So EsperDoD is once again throwing someone with integrity and true American values under the bus. The JCS and service secretaries under MoronAVirus45 are deplorable!!
The Perfect10Countdown SaluteToAllFrontliners therealcvn71 SECNAV secnav76 pray for America
His crew came 1st & shame on USNavy realDonaldTrump SECNAV
He needed to do what he needed to do!!!!
Oh God, dazzle us. Miracle, the calamity has aggravated, for we are your weak servants, and we have no power nor might .. O God, remove this epidemic from us
He leaked a memo? B-bye
Yeet
Sad day for US Navy 🇺🇸
