   No reason for Cmdr. Igawa's firing was given beyond "loss of confidence."   
   That phrase is often used by the military in lieu of greater details when   
   announcing firings. Information can obtained through public records   
   requests, which can have long waits.   
      
   "Navy commanding officers are held to high standards of personal and   
   professional conduct," the Navy said in its release on the decision. "They   
   are expected to uphold the highest standards of responsibility,   
   reliability and leadership, and the Navy holds them accountable when they   
   fall short of those standards."   
      
   The USS Howard was commissioned in 2001. The destroyer is based in   
   Yokosuka, Japan. Igawa took command of the ship only in December 2022.   
      
   Igawa's removal this weekend is one of several firings aboard Navy ships   
   this year.
