Interesting story my guess is that the guy must have had some very important relative in Washington or was the son or grandson of an Admiral those are the types that more or less are untouchable.
It is unfair and odd that little punishment was given it does not mean that every general officer is a scumbag like that Navy fellow but a few slip through the cracks just as in other parts of society certain people are more or less untouchable.Sometimes a screw up gets saved because his error puts other more powerful self centered officers in danger of being tarnished.Also he works with the Inspector General of the Navy the Quality Control branch to civilians while it serves a purpose IG people often are jerks for some reason it seems they always find something to write people and units off for even if they have to almost make it up give the correct answer and they will say that you should have refereed to documentation you get the picture they don't fit in the rest of their branch of service very well they are big time desk jockeys.
