I'll Be Damned...
(Click On Picture)
Yes this reminded me of a once upon a time 'No Shit' moment...
I once had a CMDCM who as if it wasn’t bad enough reported onboard swearing to the Chief’s Mess we had the best Skipper the Navy had to offer… let it be known this same Skipper oversaw a Precommissioning of a ship that lost five chiefs to alcohol and fraternization while implicated in the Navy Times as a ship fueled on drug and alcohol issues! That Skipper was also under investigation for improper use of funds!

A few months after the CMDCM checked on board and made such an outlandish claim, the Change of Command ceremony came not a moment too soon! The new Skipper did everything but bad mouth the old Skipper in even the way he handled his Battle Doctrine! Within weeks the CMDCM was praising the new Skipper who obviously had no love for the last…
“He’s the greatest Skipper the Navy has ever had!”
… Yes, He was your typical 'Yes Man' gobbling up the brass nut sack and burying the nose in the brown hole, turning the Goat Locker into a den of psychotherapy one Chief at a time!!!
Albeit the letter was awesome, it certainly wasn't in keeping with proper verbiage of the SOP for writing a Standard Naval Letter.........
