The US Navy has fired one of its submarine commanders, citing loss of confidence in his ability to lead as the reason.

I was once on that career path in that very squadron. It's a very demanding job, and lots can go wrong. I did not know Byers.
I would suspect continued failure of operational readiness inspections as the cause for his dismissal. It happens.
