The US Navy helped me put my life back together. The US Navy helped me get to achieve my dream; visiting Pere Lachaise Cemetery as well as have some great times! I also learned a lot. I love to say that I learned more in two years in the Navy than four years in college. I regret every day not completing a full 20.
But; two decades ago I saw where the Navy was heading. Navy history told us about Dorie Miller, and Martin Brashear and the “Golden Thirteen” where they always mentioned they were black! Every drawing or illustration was a woman and/or people of color. One thing I did NOT learn about was the USS Liberty (ARGR-5). One of my biggest complaints was that Boot Camp was not hard enough! It was easy to tell who who was going to be an asset to the fleet and who will be a frequent flyer to Captian’s Mast.
Now the Navy has gone fully woke. The Navy is extending basic training two more weeks at a cost of millions to us, the taxpayer. Issues will include: suicide prevention, sexual assault, hazing, and of course; racism! The Navy has reported on it as a personal development improvement. But leave it to the UK’s Daily Mail to lay it all out.
The Navy has been going to shit for years. Now they are speeding up the process. They need to spend two weeks on damage control (shipboard firefighting). The picture above the USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) had a ventilation fire and the ship is a total loss! Or the Navy needs to spend more time in navigation as there were two surface ships that collided with each other! The Navy could save both time and money if they simply better screened people coming in! The Navy signed someone who was learning disabled! I shit you not! I’m at the point where I don’t worry about China or Russia invading the US. There’s nothing here worth taking over!
