The former commanding officer of the USS John S. McCain pleaded guilty Friday to dereliction of duty for a crash in 2017 that killed 10 sailors. Under the plea deal, Navy Cmdr. Alfredo Sanchez was issued a punitive letter of reprimand and was ordered to forfeit $6,000 in wages. Sanchez also agreed to submit a letter of resignation.
"I am ultimately responsible and stand accountable," he said during a court-martial. "I will forever question my decisions that contributed to this tragic event."

To be fair, it wasn't named after that McCain, it was named after his pappy and grandpappy.
Think positive instead:
"It's all good, now I can pursue my next career, in law enforcement" - Cmdr. Alfredo Sanchez
Boy howdy! I seem to have found that "basket of deplorables" that Killary was ranting about last year...
