Obama's Fault.
Smells like BS to me - obvi job one is not to crash.
I would bet they are very well trained in sensitivity and diversity though.
When will someone step up and say clearly that operational training is taking a back seat to training on living with and coddling sexually disturbed misfits?
I'll stand watch ANY time, skipper..!!!
I will..!!!!
It seems like something else is going on besides fatigue.
No way those ships can get close to a Navy vessel without the vessel knowing.
I’ll NEVER be convinced that having to deal with gender issues and having sailors who insist on making sexuality an issue doesn’t distract from training focused, cohesive and well-qualified crew.
Bs, Station 1 on the bridge or all in the brig,
Inexperienced folks in Pacific. Too expensive to send experienced family guys on those tours. Lots of experienced folks taken out via Fat Leonard situation. Throw in the video game generation. My Navy family member says toddlers are preferable to 19 year old sailors. Etc.
How much training do you need to look through a pair of binoculars?
What did the advisors say about fags, crossdressers, fudgepackers and/or straight lads and lasses playing disorganized gr@b@$$ when they’re supposed to be giving their tasks their undivided attention? Dollars to doggie doo, they never mentioned THAT. It’s a mystery, how all those female military types are turning up pregnant.
we're talking peacetime Navy crashing into other ships that were carrying cargo...
My God, were not the sailors in WW2 tested in constant lookout and battle with enemies, yet somehow our Navy was superb...
Aren’t the radars working? I don’t buy into overworked sailors as an excuse. There is no excuse unless the equipment is faulty.
well, you know, when the military is focused on hormone treatments, accommodative assignments and surgical castrations for a few thousand, it’s hard to find money for things like training tens of thousands
I think if your name is John Smith you literally, should not be allowed to Captain a boat
Obama’s Navy. Meanwhile sequester remains in place.
There is a report on the last collision that the female officer who was in charge of damage control did not even go to the site of the damage but did her “leadership” from the bridge via the intercom. Normally that officer should be in the area damaged and ready to direct and assist any way he can, including heavy lifting and whatever else needs to be done. PC strikes and kills again.
This story is just more BS. It’s all about the cover up, that cyber weapons make our Navy impotent.
They can’t admit it and likely can’t do anything about it (for now).
