NORFOLK, Va. — The aircraft carrier commander fired last year over lewd videos he made for his crew is retiring.

The Navy confirmed to The (Norfolk) Virginian-Pilot that Capt. Owen Honors will retire April 1.

Honors was executive officer aboard the Norfolk-based carrier Enterprise when he made and broadcast the videos shipwide in 2006-07. The videos contained anti-gay jokes and scenes of sailors simulating sex acts.

Honors, by then serving as Enterprise’s commanding officer, was fired after the videos became public.

Officials determined that Honors committed misconduct in making the videos, but ruled in August that he could stay in the service.

An unrelated Navy board selected him for consideration for early retirement. Officers chosen for retirement were notified in late 2011.
