The Navy is uniquely positioned to support both defensive and offensive roles in green and brown water.

Near any source of water is a great place to find birds. Right after it rains, it's a good time. The birds are out.

I just want to thank all my fans for their loyalty and support-for coming out to the shows and buying the CDs.

I just do not see a sense of urgency in industry reflective of the fact that we are a nation at war.

We as a Navy and a nation cannot maintain a workforce that is configured for a world that no longer exists.

I would dearly love to see Oceana continue as a Master Jet Base, but the decision in terms of where BRAC continues on is not one that involves me. I really would like to hold off on any assessment of what's transpiring there in terms of encroachment or remediation activities. But I do recognize that this is a master jet base, and we don't have many of them. It's very critical that we have adequate master jet base capabilities to ensure we can continue both training and operational support activities.
