Yes, captains who are sleeping are regularly sacked when the officer on watch makes a screwup, because "the captain was in charge." Does this have anything to do with fault? No. It simply allows us to focus on an easy demon.
If that's what you're about, have at it. But, don't expect respect for your position.

Note: Bilmore's wife has been sacked for allowing such a nasty response to Gatti, whom we all like to treat with kid gloves.
(We know who's really in charge)
