FNC: Acting Navy Secretary Resigns Over Firing of Aircraft Carrier Commander

EXCERPT:

TOMLINSON: "Bill, good afternoon. Just moments ago I learned not only did Acting Navy Secretary Thomas Modly offer to resign, he has resigned, he’s told his staff. So that means, just a week ago, it was Captain Brett Crozier, the commanding officer of the Theodore Roosevelt, was on the hot seat after a letter of plea for help to top Navy brass was leaked to his local newspaper in San Francisco, leading to his ouster on Thursday by the Acting Navy Secretary. But within days, the Acting Navy Secretary himself was put on the hot seat. Thomas Modly visited the aircraft carrier himself on Monday, flying all the way halfway across the world to Guam in the western Pacific where he addressed the crew over the loudspeaker that goes throughout the entire ship and addressed all 5,000 members of the crew where he offered to resign, but within days, he realized he had done the wrong thing, he apologized, and today, he offered his resignation.
