Just how does the Navy think they are going to fight against a near peer adversary???
Satellites off line. Comms down. EMP and cyber attacks. GPS jammed...
Ive been operating pleasure boats up to 80 for 45+ years on the Atlantic coast, and my brother in-law is retired Navy having served on the Iwo Jima and oversaw maintenance on the training fleet here in Annapolis. This push for technology and a video game approach is a recipe for disaster as we saw. Its a manual helm/steering wheel and throttle/clutch controls, period, no matter how big the platform is. The sailors need a basic understanding of the dynamics and to feel and sense what the ship is doing. I preached in to people I was training along the way, you need to have situational awareness and a fundamental understanding of what the boat is doing. Forget all the high tech aids. I would turn off all the electronics and see if they could figure out how to navigate. Some interesting stuff

Sounds like sour grapes to me!!
Why complain, we got wommmin in Subs, close to SEALs, he/he getting married at the Academy.
Isn’t that progress??? (SARC/)
Like the old Chief said
When I came in the Navy in 56 Queers were ‘outlawed’ and would do Brig Time....
By mid-60s they were just discharged
By 80s they were welcomed with open arms..
“So”,the Chief said, “When I went in they were taboo, then became somewhat accepted, I am getting the hell out before it is mandatory”.
