In subsequent articles in other media, Bill Clinton's name was removed. There was an article that ran I think in Fortune by the guy who was the columnist who writes about military affairs. He referred to the captain as just the captain. But you could easily look up and see the commander was Alijani. There is no way someone who writes on military affairs would not know that (or it was edited out by someone else).
You know how the symbolism guy writes about nuclear comms? Explosive Info? I wonder if the firing of the crew - now named in the thread article - plays into this?
Oh yes read his in-depth info all the time
are you infering the capt of the connecticut was listed as bill clinton?
The Navy's official spokesperson was a dude called Bill Clinton with the rank of Captain. Subs do NOT have Captains. They have Commanders.
look it up.
ya, I think I mentioned that in other comments, look that up. this question was to point out that these guys commenting on this were making it unclear. is that done purposely or for lack of trying? the captain of a ship does not necessarily have to hold the RANK of captain in the navy. maybe by labeling this bill clinton as a spokesperson would eliminate any confusion. maybe.
