==Dismissal of captain==
Captain Crozier has been replaced by an admiral who had previously commanded the ship, because he distributed his memo outside his chain of command.
* [[Thomas Modly]], the acting secretary of the navy, said that Captain Brett Crozier had been relieved of his command of the nuclear-powered carrier because he had copied in too many people on an internal memo on Monday, in which he urgently appealed for members of his crew who had fallen ill to be allowed to disembark for medical care in Guam.<ref> [https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/apr/02/us-navy-uss-theodore-roosevelt-coronavirus US navy fires commander who raised alarm about coronavirus on ship] - ''The Guardian'' - accessed 4-3-2020</ref>
