> This is insane yet not shocking. I can’t imagine throwing away my entire career, and possibly more, over this. Has she thrown away her career? She was demoted from Senior Chief Petty Office to Chief Petty Officer, a demotion of one rank, which at least on paper doesn't seem to be too bad. Or will this being on her record mean that she won't get any future promotions, nor any of the more desirable assignments that a Chief Petter Officer might get, making it unlikely that she will reenlist whenever her current enlistment ends? Here's her bio [1]. I'm surprised the punishment wasn't much more severe. I could see being lenient if this was some relatively inexperienced sailor who had not been in the Navy a long time. But she's been in the Navy for just over 22 years, and based on this > Marrero first served at Submarine Group Eight, followed by U.S. Second Fleet as the afloat Flag communicator. She was Sailor of the Year at Combat Direction Systems Activity Dam Neck, completed two combat deployments with Mobile Communications Team attached to SEAL Team Two, and held multiple positions in the joint intelligence and operations departments at U.S. Southern Command. it looks like she had experience in communication and intelligence, so really should have known that unauthorized communication channels can be very risky.
