This is sad
however always the same!
In the
military service
the buck is passed
up the ladder?
A captain of
any ship
has the responsibility
to train
all below her/him.
This could
explain his being relieved duty?
However,
some
trips out of port
can take days
if not weeks
and
even months.
He can,
should and does
hand the ship over to his executive officer
at times
for rest, eat
and sleep
one must assume?
If or when
this happens,
the executive officer becomes the Captain
of the ship
until
relieved by
his Commanding officer
(the Captain).
Why did both
get the relieved of their duties?
Which one was
the Captain of the Ship
at the time of the crash?
Master Chief
Petty Officer Brice Baldwin
was in charges of the duty roster
and
reasonable
for the lookouts
so he must go along with the lookouts and helmsman!
Cmdr Benson
and the Fitzgerald’s second-in-command,
or
executive officer,
Cmdr Sean
Babbitt,
both of whom were asleep in their cabins when the ships collided, and
the Fitzgerald’s senior enlisted sailor, Master Chief Petty Officer Brice
Baldwin, were relieved of their duties aboard the Fitzgerald. Cmdr Benson, as
well as several sailors on watch that night will face what the military calls
no judicial punishment.

Who was in
charge of the lookouts and the helm at the time of the crash?
This my
friends was my old navy.
