How long retired? Things have gone in what can only be described as an.. incomprehensible unfathomable direction in the last decade or so. Parent post is not surprising in the least.
Politics is seeping where it doesn't belong.
I am very worried.

Sometimes the jizzless thing falls off with impeccably bad timing. Right when things go boom. People get injured (no deaths yet). Limp home early. Allies let down. Shipping routes elongate by a sad multiple. And it even affects you directly as you pay extra for that Dragon silicon toy you ordered from China.

COs are not bulletproof, and the last thing anyone in the seat wants is to end up crossways with the IG. And there are confidential ways Sailors can get in touch with them if needed. Or with their Member of Congress, who can also go to Big Navy and ask "WTF is going on with my constituent?"
