At random: In a fraction of a second they are projected into eternity and will never possess a final resting home.They have graves without bodies, they are an exceptional breed of people....It is of utmost pride to me to have met these men, those lords that I salute, praise and admire. - Winston Churchill on Clearance Divers September 1944

What I find interesting is how these officers get promoted, assume command, and then the Navy discovers a problem.

Tom, there is a possibility, maybe even probability in some cases that there wasn't a problem with the CO. Maybe there was a problem with an asinine squadron commander, and the ship CO told him to pack sand, or resisted in the interest of his crew. I seen that once.
