In a speech delivered over the ship’s PA system, Modly said Crozier should have known that the letter would be made public.
In a recording of Modly remarks, obtained by Task and Purpose, sailors can be heard reacting to the acting secretary’s insult. “What the fuck?” one seems to yell.“It was a betrayal of trust with me, with his chain of command, with you,” Modly says. Not long after, someone shouts, “He was just trying to help us!”
