Naval Capt. that was fired for wanting crew off to contain virus walks off.

Captain Brett Crozier of the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt has been fired due to "poor judgement". He wrote a letter to his superiors that was leaked to a newspaper regarding his covid-19 situation on board his ship. He has crew members who have been infected with the virus and feels that it's best to get some crew members off his ship to help the spread of the virus. I guess the way he relayed this message wasn't the nicest way and obviously for it to get leaked goes against government rules. It's just a messed up situation all around for everyone but the guy just wanted to take care of his 5,000 person crew. There have been a reported 114 sailors who tested positive on the ship so you can see why there might of been a panic. While leaving his ship the crew chanted his name and watching the video gave me goosebumps. I understand there is rules to maintain the integrity of the ship but he took one for his crew and now they are looking to get his crew into hotels and off the ship.
