So, what's it going to be about?
Money?
Women?
Accident?
Mental issues?
Or just pure machoism?

FTA: The Navy charged Rodriguez on July 29, according to the charge sheet. In addition to the two charges from Braswell's death, the Navy charged Rodriguez with simple assault and reckless endangerment for three separate instances. Rodriguez pointed a loaded service pistol at three different sailors -- once in February and twice in May -- while on board Kennedy, according to the charge sheet.

According to his releaseable service record obtained by USNI News, Rodriguez enlisted in the Navy last year and joined the crew of JFK in October shortly after a stint at the Naval Air Technical Training Center at Naval Air Station Pensacola, Fla. His home of record is in Massachusetts, according to the record.

What's in unreleaseable service records? Psychological testing, maybe?

Yes, medical or psychological testing would fall under that category.
