Things couldn't get stranger with the Navy's chain of command...

Phelan and Harrison appear suspicious of Cao, a high-profile Navy veteran and former Republican Senate candidate in Virginia whom Trump nominated for the post, according to the four people, who include former and current defense officials, granted anonymity to discuss internal dynamics. Phelan and Harrison don’t know Cao and worry he will undercut their efforts to centralize authority within the Navy, especially since he is a former naval officer who has Trump’s ear.
