The Navy has relieved 12 commanding officers so far in 2024 -- including three firings that have not previously been made public, according to information provided to Military.com by the service.

In addition to the nine publicly announced firings, Capt. Alex Dutko, manager of the Direct and Time Sensitive Strike program; Capt. Michael Meno, commander of Naval Construction Group 1; and Capt. David Wilson, commander of Naval Support Activity South Potomac, were also relieved of their commands in the past six months, a Navy spokesman said.
 
When asked about the three firings and why they were not made public, the Navy spokesman said that the sea service does not publicly announce reliefs that are not the result a loss of the trust and confidence in the officers' ability to command.

Have they all been replaced by DEI officers?

Nobody gets "fired" anymore - F up, move up; retirement; resignation; etc.

If people are really being "fired", there have to be really egregious things going on to make the firings worth the potential lawsuits and blowback.  Or, this could be an old fashioned purge, ala Stalin.
