I guess this is why they (Ross and Borcher) get paid the big bucks. Good to see discipline is being maintained.By Sophie Freeman

Two U.S. Navy officers in charge of a warship bound for Libya have been removed over a sex and alcohol scandal among their sailors.
The commanding officer, Nathan Borchers, and the command master chief, Susan Bruce-Ross, have been relieved of their duties on board the USS Stout over what the Navy described as a 'loss of confidence in their ability to lead'.
They were kicked off after a group of sailors on their ship were caught having inappropriate relationships with other crew members and behaving badly while drunk in ports.
Borchers and Bruce-Ross were not directly involved in any of the incidents, the Navy said.
