The Navy did not offer any evidence that he had leaked the letter himself but removed him anyway because he was said to have shown poor “judgment” in sending his email to 20 to 30 people. “In sending it out pretty broadly, he did not take care to ensure that it couldn’t be leaked,” ModlyI understand the need not to widely publicize problems that hurt the Navy’s operational readiness, but the context is troubling.
