He probably had his Sq/CC, OG, Wing/CC, Command Chief and Jag review his tapes and reassign him to a desk job accordingly. But they probably noticed that he had all of his career containers checked off, so they promoted him.
Seeing how numerous, if not all, transports got away and given the Empire's lack of forgiveness policy. I'll bet the guy responsible for running the CAP over Hoth had an interesting performance feedback session.
Massive amount of UNSAT with this guy. I'm sure his access and clearance will be unaffected though (always willing to be surprised and have to backtrack on that opinion).
Little people like us would be looking at paper on our desk and a personal escort out of the building.
