According to the Congress Mountain Daily, on June 14, Peter Ledaka, commander of the American missile destroyer "Pretur", was lifted. This also means that the U.S. Navy will dismiss five officers in less than a week.

According to the Navy statement, the commander of Lezaka was lifted due to "losing confidence in his own command ability".

Lesaka took over as the commander of the "Pretibur" commander in October 2021.

The Navy did not provide details about Laisaka's fired, but the statement stated: "Navy commanders must abide by high standards of individuals and occupations. It is expected that they will adhere to the highest standards, reliability, and leadership. At these standards, the Navy will be held accountable for their responsibility. "

Just on June 11, the Navy had just lifted the post of Captain Jeffrey Sandin, commander of the recruits training command, because he lost confidence in command ability. "

The Navy's statement did not explain the reason, and only mentioned that Sanding had been re -assigned to the headquarters of the Navy Service Training Command.

On June 10, the "Balkley" destroyer commander Divan Johnson and the chief commander El Sanders were fired at the same time.

According to the Navy's statement, both officers "lose confidence in the ability to direct their leadership team."

Johnson has been the commander of the "Balkley" since July 2020, and Sanders has been the chief commander since June 2021.

The Navy said Johnson and Sanders had been temporarily assigned to the staff of the commander of the Navy's Atlantic Water Army.

The Navy also deployed two other officers to temporarily replace the vacancies of the two. The statement pointed out that this distribution "will not affect the task or schedule of the headquarters."

On June 8th, the US Navy's 137 Electronic Attack Squadron Commander Matthew McCowmacker was also fired for the same reason.

According to reports, since September 2021, McCockerk has been the commander of the army, and he will be temporarily assigned to the Pacific Electronic Attack Wing at the Wedebe Island Naval Base in Washington.
