The U.S. Coast Guard on Tuesday relieved a commander over a "loss of confidence" in his judgment and his ability to fulfill his assigned duties. 

Capt. Matthew Baer was relieved last month as the commander of the Coast Guard Sector North Carolina pending the results of an administrative investigation, USCG said.

Baer has temporarily been reassigned to the 5th Coast Guard District headquarters. 

Assuming Baer’s duties as Sector North Carolina commander is Capt. Tim List.
