Capt. Brett Crozier, who commanded USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) until April, will not be reinstated to lead the ship, will not be eligible for future command and faces additional administrative punishment that will be overseen by U.S. Pacific Fleet Commander Adm. John Aquilino, the Navy announced (19 June 2020),
Crozier was removed from the carrier after a March 30 memo he wrote to Navy leadership warning of the consequences of an outbreak of COVID-19 on the carrier was leaked to the press.
