The USN appears to be letting the team CO handle the situation, with the debrief items remaining in the debrief room where they belong. And the CO is taking it seriously based on his few remarks. I’d heard the flight after this one was a 5-ship versus the normal 6-ship, so that might say something.

The Navy screwed Donnie Cochran as they paraded him around as “first black Blue Angels skipper” instead of just letting him do his job.

As our parents and grandparents say; “they don’t think fat meat is greasy”. When you turn the other cheek at non standard behavior it’ll happen sooner or later.
Crazier part is at some point some of these same individuals may make their way into the 121 world. I feel for the LCP, CP, etc who has to deal with someone that hasn’t been truly checked about their non standard behavior.
