Trying again- WaPo lists Smith as Cmdr Of Jimmy Carter, but change of commmand ceremony Oct 6 made Floyd Cmdr of Jimmy Carter:

Misprint or Pentagon Obama stooge replaced quietly?
Jimmy Carter also flew Jolly Roger last April.

Did more digging and more articles confirming Smith still Cmdr. Also found this article of a ship that sank April 2017 (from other time Jolly Roger flown on Jimmy Carter):

Something fishy. Starting digs on Floyd.
Found a little more- Smith reinstated as Cmdr by at least May 9, 2017 but no change of command ceremony (listed as giving awards). Can find no articles on Floyd so far other than he took command Oct 6.
