The Navy’s surface warfare community is weighed with a culture that values administrative chores over training to fight, ship commanders that are micromanaged and an aversion to risk, according to a new survey overseen by a retired Navy admiral and Marine general at the behest of a group of Republican lawmakers. That culture was at least partially responsible for a string “of high-profile and damaging operational failures in the Navy’s Surface Warfare community,” the report found.
The study, titled “A Report on the Fighting Culture of the United States Navy Surface Fleet,” surveyed 77 current and recently retired surface sailors “about their insights into the culture of the United States” and how it related to incidents that included the 2017 fatal collisions in the Western Pacific that killed 17 sailors, the 2016 incident in which the crews of two Navy patrol boats were captured by Iranian forces in the Persian Gulf and the pier-side fire that resulted in the total loss of the former amphibious warship USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD-6).

Ma'am the torpedoes.
Nothing personal here, but you keep calling people sheep because they were betrayed by people who elected them and trusted them to do what they were elected to do.

The founders knew what they were doing when they excluded the children of foreigners from being President with the natural born citizen clause.
What happened was ALL of our elected AND appointed threw out the Constitution and swore in a Kenyan/British subject/Indonesian in direct violation of the Constitution who proceeded to corrupt the entire government, military included.
Or are you saying we are all sheep?

Well, I’m right behind you...I wanted to go down for January 6th, and I wish I had been able to see with my own lying eyes...
I have to completely agree with you on this.
I imagine it is not. I would now advise against it. When my son was assigned to India Company 4/3 Marlines as a rifleman, you really did not know you had been accepted until you were assigned a racial or ethic slur of the worst description.
