    The Navy said Yaste was relieved of duty “due to a loss of confidence in his ability to command the guided-missile destroyer” that’s currently deployed in the Gulf of Oman. The statement didn’t elaborate about why Yaste was replaced.

    I expect it was something other than the picture due to the four month gap, but the pic could be part of an overall pattern of incompetence.

      See, that’s an interesting take. This guy might have been a fuck up in some other way and this gave the Navy an easy exit for him.

      Just being sidelined for a gun scope being incorrectly configured in a picture? That would be a wild over reaction.
