weapons systems officer had to eject.
Biden era (Dec 2023) DEI appointee Capt. Dave Snowden was fired for loss
of confidence in his ability to command. He was drunk, wearing women's lingerie and ran into another ship. Snowden also neglected the carrier maintenance resulting in numerous equipment failures.
His interim replacement is Capt. Chris Hill (Feb 2025).
