  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.

    • I’m not unique. Special to no degree whatsoever and adamant that I don’t deserve the success I’ve had in life so far. If life were fair, my stupidity and naivety would have been punished long ago. But it isn’t, and they weren’t. Instead, promotion and pay raises followed me to each duty station. Commendations, awards, and a “career with unlimited potential,” I was told, lay on the path before me. I told them I was happy, and I think they believed me. Then one day, I tried to kill myself.
    • South Korea aims to reclaim wartime operational control (OPCON) from the US, a role Washington has assumed from around the time of the Korean War. Since 1994, Seoul’s Joint Chiefs of Staff has held peacetime OPCON, but efforts to regain wartime OPCON from the US-led Combined Forces Command have stalled over concerns about its readiness in command, control, surveillance, and reconnaissance.
    • An Indiana man was arrested in connection with online threats that led to last week’s Naval Academy lockdown, during which a midshipman was shot and a law enforcement officer was injured. Justin Fleming, 23, was arrested Sept. 12 on federal charges of “suspicion of sending an online threat through a social media application concerning the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md.,” reads a release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Indiana.
    • If you’ve had certain dental procedures, like wisdom teeth removal, a root canal, or oral surgery, some dentists may prescribe an opioid painkiller to help manage your pain. While your comfort is a priority, it’s important to also understand any potential negative side effects posed by opioids and the importance of using opioids responsibly.
