We have a systemic problem of incompetency in the US Navy. There have actually been four unanswered operation failures, collisions and needless deaths directly on the shoulders of commanders to the point they should be court marshaled. I cannot understand why unless we are putting too much energy in integrating women and homosexuals into critical combat positions for PC reasons and basic sailing has gone to hell.

My son intended to make a career out of the Navy when he joined in 2005. He quit in disgust four years later.

I know of several Marine and Navy officers who left during the Kenyanesian Usurpation.
Obama chased out the warriors and promoted those who were gung-ho about trans-gendering the military.

Ash Carter’s fault. Mattis needs to get to a serious house cleaning. Personnel and proceedures.

My favorite madeup word.

The Navy has lost strength because it’s not as diverse as it used to be. Right? I mean, since diversity is our strength, then to lose strength is to lose diversity, and vice versa, right? No?

The Navy. It’s a career. And not much else.

Back in 1978 when asked for brief assessment of possible GPS capbilities in the fleet, I told my NAVSEA customer, “This is gonna make people stupid”.

OH DEAR GOD. Do those photos really represent today’s navy? Might as well scuttle the fleet.

listen, don't blame these problems on women or homos.

that's passing the buck....

..its the duty of the leadership of the Navy to make all of their personal ready and able and if they squander time on diversity issues or homo issues or pregnancy issues, its still their stinking damn choice to just say NO..

Its a big question WHY so many supposed good Navy personal just went along with every cockamamie idea the bama regime demanded....yet we hardly heard a peep and if we did, we'd have some admiral sheepishly supporting all the diversity crap..

You actually have to get to the area of operations without colliding into other ships or running aground. I don’t think the Navy is capable of sailing across the pond in Central Park right now, but keep fantasizing everything will be okay. Get out your Chinese dictionary.
