Commander Edward Byers, until recently the commander of the USS DALLAS, a Los Angeles-class attack sub, famous for it&#8217;s inclusion in Tom Clancy&#8217;s &#8220;Hunt for Red October&#8221;.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Cmdr. Edward Byers was removed from his position by Capt. Oliver Lewis, Commander, Submarine Squadron 12. Byers has been administratively reassigned to the staff of Commander, Undersea Warfare Development Center, Groton, Connecticut.<\/p>\n<p>Capt. Jack Houdeshell, deputy commander at Submarine Squadron 4, has been assigned as commanding officer. Houdeshell previously served as commanding officer of Dallas prior to Byers. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The press release says that his commander lost confidence in his ability to drive a boat underwater or something. Byers took command of the boat in November, 2014. The picture at the top is from that happy day. You probably should take care to not confuse this Edward Byers with the Edward Byers who is getting the Medal of Honor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bobo sends us link to a Navy press release about the latest Navy officer to bite &hellip; <a title=\"Commander Edward Byers, USS DALLAS commander fired\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=64168\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Commander Edward Byers, USS DALLAS commander fired<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":64169,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[119],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-64168","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-navy"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64168","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=64168"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64168\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/64169"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=64168"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=64168"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=64168"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
