Senior officers aboard the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier reeling from a coronavirus outbreak offered to sign a revealing letter about the dire situation, only to be denied by the ship's commander, Capt. Brett Crozier.

Crozier feared for their careers and denied their request, according to The New York Times.

Crozier was eventually fired for sending the letter by the Navy's top official, who berated him to his former crew in controversial remarks that led to the official's resignation.
