If I were his lieutenant? I would doubt the force of my own opinion in passing judgement on the sum of his being. Furthermore, I would shy away from inciting mutiny on the basis of my own, doubtlessly biased perspective.

Yet, if I were convinced of his evil beyond the slightest doubt and witnessed the weight of evidence of his brutality and incompetence grow bloated with every passing hour -- why then I imagine that I would seek to detain him, and that I would set about drawing up a list of his transgressions. I would undertake these tasks alone, and I would not for a single moment doubt the consequences due to me at the moment of making port.

All men of the navy pray that they are never led by such a man.
