Navy Demotes Senior Chief Over Unauthorized Starlink Installation

Grisel Marrero led a covert operation to install a Starlink dish on the USS Manchester, compromising security for internet access.

Marrero and other chiefs spent $2,800 on a Starlink kit to access Wi-Fi during deployment.
The network, named 'STINKY,' was used for personal messaging, sports, and streaming.
Marrero lied to superiors and altered documents to conceal the setup.
The unauthorized network was discovered by a civilian worker installing another device.
Over 15 senior chiefs were implicated, facing various disciplinary actions.
