Recommendation
When the Navy relieved Brett Crozier of his command early in the pandemic, he faced a firestorm of publicity. Then-president Donald Trump publicly bashed him for sending an unclassified email criticizing higher-ups’ response to the COVID outbreak on his aircraft carrier. In this breezy memoir, Crozier explains his side and shares some of the wisdom he gained during his military tenure. Crozier is a gung ho Navy man who flew helicopters and fighter jets before rising to command supersized ships. He proves himself to be an enlightened boss who understands work, believes in good training, puts his sailors first and urges you to take the time to go surfing – or to do whatever chills you out.
