Who relieved Admiral Husband E. Kimmel after the Pearl Harbor attack?

Admiral Chester William Nimitz Admiral William Pye relieved Admiral Kimmel immediately after Kimmel and General Walter Short were made the scapegoats for Pearl Harbor. Pye had been the captain of one of the battleships sunk on Battleship Row, and he was hastily promoted. Pye launched an attempt to relieve Wake Island with a force led by the carrier USS Saratoga which would have evacuated the wounded and civilians (who were later executed by the Japanese) and placed 400 more Marines on the island. When the force was 800 miles away from the island, the attempt was aborted by Pye because he believed Wake was already lost and he feared losing the relief force with it. Thereafter, Pye was replaced by Admiral Nimitz. Pye remained an admiral, but he was never again given a combat command.
