So kick them out at "30ish" (whatever the fugg that means), meaning a major combatant component of the USN will be run by at best by 0-4s? That and his age had nothing to do why he died.

I’m talking about kicking them out of the actual fighting and training to fight. Not out of leadership roles. 43 year old CO has no business out fast roping with the young guns. There is no reason for him to be practicing for a role he should never be called upon to do. Junior officers should be leading teams in the field and senior officers directing teams from the rear. By the time you’re in your mid thirties you are getting too old to be doing the job. Cutoff needs to be 32-34 rang. That’s just the opinion of my friend and some of his fellow retired special operations people. My friend was EOD assigned to seal teams for 10 years.
