Enterprise skipper sunk

As predicted, Capt. Owen Honors got torpedoed today. Per the The Virginian-Pilot (which broke the story over the weekend), "Adm. John C. Harvey announced today that he has permanently relieved Capt. Owen Honors as commanding officer of the aircraft carrier Enterprise for showing 'exceptionally poor judgment' in producing and broadcasting a series of raunchy videos to his crew in 2006 and 2007 [as executive officer]." But a core question remains: How on earth did Honors win command of the Enterprise in the first place? The Navy still has some 'splaining to do.

UPDATE: Out of fairness, here is an impassioned defense of Capt. Honors by someone who knows him. It's rather compelling, and a reminder that things are rarely as black & white as they are often portrayed.
