  3. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)

    Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in the Navy is a set of policies and programs that promote the fair treatment of all people. DEI aims to create a culture of inclusion where everyone feels welcome and can perform to their full potential. 

    Why is DEI important in the Navy? 

    DEI can help the Navy achieve its mission by harnessing the creative powers of a diverse team. DEI can help the Navy sustain a sharp team that embraces people achieving their highest potential. 

    A non-inclusive environment, where some are intentionally excluded, can negatively impact the mission of the U.S. Navy.

  5. The Threat from Within – The Trump Administration

    Our country is under threat from within. There is no doubt that the current administration, led by Trump, is using deceit and leadership positions to circumvent the constitution. What makes matters worse are the people who follow and join in this deception that is damaging to our Constitutional Republic. Separately, the current administration is causing economic chaos within our country and to our allies alike. It has only started but the telling signs are in the stocks and bonds that have moved in an erratic fashion unlike anything we have ever seen happen. Keep an eye on your 401K if you have one.

    Our country was built on the foundation of liberty, equality, justice, popular sovereignty, and rule of law. It is enshrined in documents such as the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence which emphasize that all individuals have rights that should be protected equally.

    This forum includes articles on topics/ incidents that go against the constitution, the Declaration of Independence and current laws that were put in place by “We the People,” that protect us from tyranny and illegal or immoral acts that are occurring on almost a weekly basis. Topics in this area may not be strictly military but cover our rights and freedom that many of us swore to uphold.

The lifeblood of our Navy is the Sailor: well-trained, connected, supported and fit to fight. In every ocean around the world, our national security interests are challenged by increasingly complex threats. Underpinned by our warrior ethos, we will rise to that challenge. For 250 years, we have been a world-class fighting Navy, and our strength lies in our Sailors. Our teamwork and esprit de corps are strengthened by our core values and devotion to our mission. 2. We must resource the Navy our Nation Needs. I am committed to the wellbeing of our Sailors and their families - providing them with state-of-theart platforms, world-class facilities and dependable support through our Total Sailor and Family Action Plan. We will leverage the insights and lessons learned from the past to improve and rebrand our Culture of Excellence initiative to its new focus - Total Sailor: Fit to Fight. 3. Today, I have directed your Navy leadership to take the steps necessary to ensure that No Sailor Will Live Afloat. We will invest in unaccompanied and family housing in addition to optimizing our new BAH authority to ensure every Sailor resides in housing that is clean, comfortable and safe. 4. During my term, we will transform our galley facilities to ensure they are designed to meet the nutritional needs and choices of our Sailor's modern-day lifestyle. It is paramount that we modernize food service to deliver healthy and flexible options. 5. Effective immediately, the Secretary of the Navy has directed we convene a focused assessment of your uniforms and seabag. We will streamline uniform requirements to ensure you have affordable, available and durable service clothing that you are proud to wear. The goal will be to reduce the number of uniforms while respecting our hardearned traditions that makes our Navy so special. 6. You have grown up in a digitally connected world where disconnection means isolation. Therefore, I have mandated efforts to improve cell service on our installations and bring free Wi-Fi to all of our barracks. 7. I have also ordered changes to the NAVADMIN process ensuring our Sailors are able to find clear and correct information in one singular location. We will not use NAVADMINs to work around the effort required to properly change the base instructions any longer. 8. Additionally, I've directed Navy leadership to revisit prior efforts such as Sailor pay to ensure our previous corrective actions are still working so that each Sailor is receiving the correct amount of pay and entitlements in a timely manner. 9. You are my priority and I need you focused on the fight. This is the first of many efforts to improve your Quality of Life - so, stand by for what's coming next. 10.
