A NEWISH OLD KIND OF HELL

Saw this tonight. There was room in the room for one captain. This would be hell.

Command could be hazardous to your health at least to your career advancement.

I knew a couple of good lieutenant commanders that turned down offers of command. They considered the risk to be way outside the gain. I thought were wrong but I only worked with 20 or 30 of their peers. In my time in, the bios of many admirals featured LCDR command. That was back when the was trying a little bit to push command down. I was there at the end at the end of the end. Navy stopped doing that a while ago.

Look at some of the people that have made O-6, and ruined their commands. The USN may be doomed.There does not seem to be a warrior ethic anymore.
