Relieved of command.

Good. Proper handling of a firearm most likely wasn't his only shortcoming.

All we got on my destroyer in the '80s was lousy M-14 hand me downs from early Vietnam era with the selector switch's welded to semi.

Couldn't even put them on SAFE?

M-14s like the Ruger Mini-14 patterned after it have the safety right in front of the trigger guard, not as part of the selector switch, which is on the upper right rear of the receiver.
