Nothing good will come of this, IMHO.

As an ex Navy man I can say this.

This will bring a whole new meaning to the game of "Hide the Torpedo."

As a junior NUC officer on a submarine I can at least give my opinion, this is a VERY BAD IDEA. Obama and his PC fools need to go.

There used to be three officer's to a stateroom, although we shared one head, so having three female officers would probably work, as well as it could. Of course, the Chinese ideogram for trouble is two women under one roof, so who knows what three in one room would be. ;-)

Over the past 40 years, Bruner said, the percentage of men in the Navy going to college and earning technical degrees has dropped from 70 percent to 25 percent, while the number of women earning technical degrees in the Navy has risen.

I'd like to see some other statistics that parallel the education issue over the same period. Bet I can make a few good guesses as to the cause of this change, though.

A Navy task force is relying on the service’s experience with similar milestones

Milestones?

Or was it millstones?

I missed the part where they explained how it would help our Navy kill more of our enemies.
