The Navy may reinstate a captain who was removed from his post earlier this month after asking for help with the coronavirus outbreak aboard his ship, The New York Times reported Wednesday.
Department officials told the Times that Adm. Michael M. Gilday, the chief of naval operations, has indicated that he may reinstate the ousted Capt. Brett Crozier.
Cmdr. Nate Christensen, a spokesman for the admiral, told The Hill that “no final decisions have been made.â€
“As the Chief of Naval Operations has made clear, all options are on the table," Christensen added in his statement. "That said, Adm. Gilday has received, and is reviewing the Preliminary Inquiry. It will take time for the report to be reviewed and endorsed by Adm. Gilday."
