I'm glad I'm retired from the Navy. The Navy was forced into a PC nightmare in which sailors cannot be repremanded because it will "hurt someone's self-esteem." So chiefs, who used to run a tight Navy by kicking ass (literally) are reduced to pleading with Seaman Apprentice Screwup to please, please be more careful. Female recruits routinely burst into tears because their training CPOs are "mean" to them. G-d help us in the next war.
The Russian Navy may be a shadow of its former self, but my Navy isn't in much better shape. A President Obama will end the US Navy once and for all.

The blaze was pegged to unauthorized smoking near flammable refrigerant oil that shouldn’t have been there.Ya think?

Inadequate training? I thought our navy was second to none when it came to damage control?

SONOBUOY PING!
Click on pic for past Navair pings.
Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
The only requirement for inclusion in the Navair Pinglist is an interest in Naval Aviation.
This is a medium to low volume pinglist.

Part of the problem is that these ships are built with spaces that are almost impossible to find if you are not shown the route by someone who is familiar with the lower spaces in a newer Nimitz Class hull. Zone Inspection is a frightful nightmare to keep track of if you don’t have proper Leadership and Management practices; and oversight of those practices is what this report questioned as well.
There are a lot of reasons why this happened and I have no doubt that it is tragic that a good Man’s career has to end over something like this, but Responsibility is the name of the game here, which is how the Navy goes about making sure nothing like this can happen again.
