Captain Jim Fennell

Navy changed the naming structure and called them carrier strike groups.

And I have a feeling we're going to go back to the nomenclature of battle groups, whether they're battleship battle groups or carrier battle groups.

But we're going to be into this mindset of we're

fighting wars at sea.

And so what I would like to hear from the Secretary of the War in the future is he always talks about the warrior ethos, which is very important for the War Department.

Let's start talking about what is the warrior ethos mean in the naval and maritime arena, because it's not the same as in the land arena

with grunts going ashore or grunts running around in the desert or the jungles and fighting land war.

There is a warrior ethos at sea, and that needs to be built as well.

And I think the Secretary of Navy and this new leadership will get around to that.

But that needs to be discussed as well.

And then obviously the big thing is the people to be able to build this.

So the president was asked that question.

He was asked, if you looked at all those questions, 80, 90% of the questions had nothing to do with

what this press conference is about, which is kind of typical, but it shows you how this nation and our reporters and the press don't understand naval warfare at all.

So we have more education to do with the press to get them to focus on what this is all about.

And one question was, what about people?

Where are you going to get the workforce?

And so one of the things that we can do is we can get the Veterans Administration to start opening up

avenues for veterans to be able to go back and get, you know, shipbuilding, welding, those kind of degrees on their GI bills and things of that nature.

That kind of creativity, along with using artificial intelligence and robotics.
