"Acting Secretary Thomas Modly's departure was necessary. His actions & words in removing Captain Crozier from his command of the USS Theodore Roosevelt were wrong. The Acting Secretary disgraced his office, the Navy, & the values of a commanding officer."
"Captain Crozier deserves the thanks not only of the men and women under his command but also the Navy, whose values he reflected. He acted swiftly and forcefully to protect the health and welfare of those he commanded, and he deserves our respect and our thanks."
