As a suscriber to U.S. Naval Institute Proceedings, the May issue is always of interest to me. It lists the Admirals in the Navy and the commissioned ships in the Navy. The number of Admirals now always exceeds the number of commissioned ships.
Today we have about 280 active Navy ships.
In 1993 we had over 450.
Is the world more stable now than in 1993?
Proceedings used to be an interesting read, my dad was a lifetime subscriber, but by the time he passed on, it was already showing its cracks.
Even still, probably interesting to read, I’ll bet there are plenty of articles about environmentally friendly tactics, green fuel, and articles about day care and advancement of women and minorities to command positions.
