I used to know and race with the E5 that was the guy at the radar console when the USS Starke was attacked in the Gulf in 1987. (mopar guy to) They tried to hang that on him to but only later found out it was faulty radar equipment that got rammed through Congress. Made his life hell for awhile. I had my own "episodes" in the Navy where they ALWAYS find the lowest man to blame for any and all issues that arise. Not saying he did or did not but "trust" an investigation like that when butts are on the line. I will hold fire pending all of them are completed.
