Submarine Skipper Relieved of Command

(From U.S. 7th Fleet Public Affairs)
The commander of U.S. 7th Fleet, Vice Adm. Jonathan W. Greenert, relieved Cmdr. Kevin Mooney of his command of USS San Francisco (SSN 711) Feb. 12. The decision to relieve Cmdr. Mooney was made following non-judicial punishment (NJP) proceedings held in Yokosuka, Japan. Additionally, as a result of the NJP, Mooney received a Letter of Reprimand.
An investigation determined that Cmdr. Mooney failed to follow procedure. I guess he can pretty much kiss his naval career goodbye.
