Dude's put in his work. Why should he continue working for people who don't care?

“It is difficult to comprehend how the entire command team, driven by an overwhelming concern for the crew’s safety, took little to no action within their own span of control to improve the crew’s safety. The leadership team was missing in action when it came to leveraging available temporary facilities, organizing and then leading a quick and effective egress from the ship. Not recognizing their missed leadership opportunity, it became necessary, in their minds, to further disregard good order and discipline by ‘jumping the chain’ [of command] with an urgent plea,” reads Burke’s conclusion.
“After 40 plus days to reflect on their actions since arrival on Guam, many of the principal members of the ship and strike group leadership team maintain that their actions to protect the crew were proper, and that the actions requested would not have occurred without the former commanding officer’s email and letter.”

The investigation didn’t fault Merz or Aquilino for their response to the outbreak. In addition to Crozier’s removal of command and Baker’s stalled promotion, Gilday recommended Crozier, the air wing commander and senior medical officer face an administrative review at Aquilino’s discretion.

“This was all about what Crozier failed to do within his span of control,” Gilday told reporters.
“I looked at the span of control of the commander of the Pacific Fleet. I looked at the span of control of the commander of 7th fleet. I did not see those problems.”
