The U.S. Navy has fired two senior commanders in the Pacific region in connection with recent deadly collisions of Navy ships, as part of a sweeping purge of leadership in the Japan-based fleet.
The announcement comes a day before the top U.S. Navy officer and the Navy secretary are scheduled to go to Capitol Hill for a hearing on the ship crashes.
The USS John S. McCain and an oil tanker collided in Southeast Asia last month, leaving 10 U.S. sailors dead and five injured. And seven sailors died in June when the USS Fitzgerald and a container ship collided in waters off Japan.
The latest dismissals bring the number of fired senior commanders to six, including the top three officers of the Fitzgerald.

Daniel Whyte III, president of Gospel Light Society International, says, this foolishness is very dangerous and needs to stop. Whyte tells the SUPREME LEADER OF NORTH KOREA Kim Jong-un to stop acting like a child with toys. For you are playing Russian Roulette with your life, the life of your beautiful daughter, and the lives of your people, and you are putting the people of South Korea, who happen to be your family as well and the people of Japan’s lives in danger of destruction. Remember what Jesus Christ said: “Blessed are the peacemakers.” Stop this asinine activity, and if you can, work out a peaceful resolution with your family to the south. President Xi Jinping of China will be more than happy to help you do it.")
