He was Commander of CTF 150 when I was with CMF in Bahrain. Very personable and easy to work with. His staff seemed to be extremely pleased with his leadership.

It'll be interested to see if that filters down into any real adjustments, as that's been a common theme for a while with RCN leadership, but still maintained crazy opscheds, training schedules etc that requires the shorthanded crews and staff to work insane hours with no real relief in sight to achieve. The CPFs and subs fleet rusting out with long DWPs, and the MCDVs getting killed at least forces a bit of a scale back, but they just shifted a heavier burden on to the ones that are left, and still haven't addressed the underlying issues that are burning people out.
Lot of leaders who are personable and care about the people they work with directly, but then drive down high level requirements that beats the hell out of people downstream that they don't see. Not sure if that's just because they are and abstract concept when you think about trickle down effects on hundreds of people or something.
