i mean the head grand poobah attorney of the navy. and she has a vast amount of experience in operational law, environmental law, and then as the judge advocate general of the navy, she is the one that was dealing with all of the changes to the uniform related to the mandate on sexual assaults. some major changes that happened in the military justice world. she shepherded the jag corps into this era of how we now prosecute cases. she has a vast amount of experience from operational law to the courts. with that i'm going to turn this over to admiral growneener. >> thank you very much, michelle, and thank you for the rundown of the navy, the rundown of the bases and what's been going on in the pacific fleet, the history. good morning, ladies and gentlemen. it's my pleasure to be here, and for my friends from guam, i say have a day. by the way, the individual up here that found that error that we inserted this morning, we were gathered together and said, we got to see if these people are paying attention. so these are people that that's

in the navy, so the navy actually, despite the metaphor being a naval one of a wa muchhe navy doesn't have of a way because they have a finite capacity in shipyards. so they cannot plan for a huge spike in shipbuilding. they are limited in what the shipyards can build in any one year. there will be fluctuations from year-to-year, but not as much as you can see in the other services. with the navy, the big thing they have is the columbia class. that is the new nuclear submarine to carry nuclear sub launched ballistic missiles. that program is very protective because that is the most survivable leg of the nuclear triad. i think they will keep that on schedule as much as they possibly can because the current fleet of ships, the ohio class ships they are replacing, they are reaching the end of their life. they already had their service life extended. just not going to be able to get much else out of them so you got to keep production of the columbia class going. but to do that, you are going to have to find potentially offsets in other shipbuilding programs. probably the most natural offs

it's close to the navy yard. they are running throughhere with wheelchairs and this fire, you can see the smoke billowing out of this building. this is a two-alarm fire. anything around thatrea that you know of that's already been bld off or that may not be accessible to people? >> callere i'm sure t a very wide range of street closures. >> we're seeing on our tv right now a lotf people racing to the scene with wheelchairs. do you know anythin? about th maybe looks like what -- small triage center that may have been set up there or i'm looking at ambulancesand do you know if anybody's transported to the hospital? >> we have ems there so anybody who needs medical attention will be in triage and evaluated an if necessary, transported to the hospital, but i don have any indication on numbers yet. >> if you have just joining us at 4:00, this is a two-alarm fire, d.c. fire and em got the call at 3:30 this afternoon to 900 5th street in southeast, really close to the navy yard. this is the scene of the arthur kapper se

a new the navy. truman didn't know the navy. the mission was to educate the president in the ways of the navy. one way -- this is the naval station as it looked at about 1950. he saw what the navy had going on and of course the navy took advantage of him being here and show him a lot of things that they were doing. he was rumored to have made a statement that the marine corps was just a bunch of soldiers and went around talking like sailors . the did not sit well with the marines. it is one of the things they would say, we will try him on a boat. maybe he likes to go boating. it turns out the president had a tendency to get seasick. i guess the disaster was when they decided to code to washington to williamsburg and it didn't turn out well. they said we have great fishing. the president did not like to go fishing. but he found out that mrs. truman liked to go fishing. the president said all i get to do when i go to her is eight the hook and take the fish off of it. he didn't like to go fishing with mrs. truman user. -- either. t

in the navy -- so the navy actually, despite the metaphor being a naval one of a bowel wave, the navy doesn't have as much of a bow wave because they simply have a finite capacity in shipyards. they can't plan for a huge spike in shipbuilding. they're limited in what their shipyards can build in any one year. there will be fluctuations from year to year, but not as much as you could see in the other services. with the navy, the big thing that they have is the columbia class, so that's the new nuclear submarine to carry nuclear sub-launch ballistic missiles. that program, i think, is actually very protected because that's the most survivable leg of the nuclear triad. i think they're going to keep that on schedule as much as they possibly can because the current fleet of ships, the ohio class ships that they're replacing, they're reaching the end of their life. they've already had their surface life extended. you're not going to be able to get much else out of them, so you have to keep the columbia class going. to do that you'll have to find potentially offsets and other shipbuilding pr

the evidence has been around since 1920 and was even published in the navy's own let's reestablish the fact that the u-boat that sank mirlo was a 267 foot long u-boat and it was the fourth of six submarines assigned to germany's 1918 american propaganda expositions -- expeditions. the mission was to lay mines at the entrance to strategic harbors off the u.s. and canadian coast. opportunity presented itself she was to sink allied ships with her torpedoes. the u-boat commander was the dark-haired 5'4" install captain otto trojan or. of the most experienced u-boat captains. over three days in mid-august it struck nine minds off new jersey. seven mines at fenwick island shoal off of delaware and eight mines and south of virginia. 35ving nine of her original to plant at wimple shoals on august 16. the native -- the navy's assertion that mirlo was sunk by a mine would seem to be logical. however that is not what happened. at wimple shoals drew cheers man were layingdo room the mines or laying their eggs as the parlance was in 1918. he kept his eye on the periscope to watch for passing traffi

i think that was due to the fact that there was another navy on the west coast. the japanese navy. in my mind, they were less prepared for a than they were in world war i. at least they have been able air station set up. it's something that had to be relearned in world war ii. as i have up here, i have a few quotes from world war ii officers in the u.s. navy that did talk about their experience in u.s. world war i. admiral andrew says, they're going to mine our harbors again because that is what they did in world war i. there is lack of resources at the beginning of that war. the americans could institute everything they learn for a quickly, or as quickly as would have been necessary to defeat that in wartime refashion. this is my contact information, the title of my book. anybody who wants to reach out, please do so. i love talking about history and answering questions. please do that. if there are any questions i will take those now. >> when you do your research -- [indiscernible] words, just outright lies. primary sources. mr. hodos: for the military internal documents that rema

forces.ve for air we have the navy air force, the air force, the army air force, and the navy's army air force, marine aviation. why do we have all of this? they are buying similar platforms, but they are buying them separately. a lot of redundancy, but it is by design. thesegood they are trying efficiency initiatives, but experience says you cannot bank on the savings. ,ne of the things they said with this budget released over the past year, j gibson was on the record, the chief management officer, saying they were billion in $46 efficiency savings over five years. that is baked into their budget. they are assuming that. $46hey cannot generate billion in efficiency savings, they have to come back and ask for that more in funding, or they have to find $46 billion in cuts. ,hat was an ambitious target and they said target for fy 18 and fy 19, which they are not close to meeting -- but the ander issue for 2020 beyond, they assumed a lot of efficiencies in the top line. you have to come back and ask for more or they will make cuts internally. they will cut meat instead of fat if they ca

three decades in the united states senate. a quarter century in the navy. >> a u.s. navy pilot with a rather prominent name was shot down during a raid against north vietnam. >> while flying bombing missions over north vietnam, he was shot down, captured and tortured. surviving nearly six years as a prisoner of war. but he always denied being a hero. >> i steadfastly reject that label. heroes of my life are those whose names are engraved on the wall down at the vietnam war memorial on the mall. >> he was reluctant when people said, you're a war hero. john mccain, by being shot down by a soviet missile over hanoi, did not consider that he had performed a heroic act. >> he was an avid reader and prolific writer. author of seven books with mark salter. >> he would tell you, the life he chose to live is the most rewarding life a human being could live. >> sam donaldson asking mccain about his first book, "faith of our fathers." >> i believe the overall message is the redemptive powers of a commitment to a cause greater than one's self-interest, even if that commitment is

people who were not interested in serving in the navy became more interested in serving in the navy. that is when the navy purged itself of its african-american sailors, except for those who were stewards and cooks. it was at the advent. so the segregation and story of race in our armed forces is tied to technology and defense say. -- efficiency. >> given that struggle, given that the ebb and flow with the technology and that african- americans had to fight, in order to find, i think you say it so well, why did they stick with the military? why did african-americans care? why was that the place to throw down the goblin? -- gotland? -- gauntlet? >> i think the opportunities and saying we want to save our country. patriotism. education benefits my angelou has this quote -- my angelou has this quote, i come as one but stand as 1000. they were not just doing it for them, they were doing it for the generations to come, to give us the opportunity.

the navy and u.s. military what women could do. membersre these women of the military or civilians working for the government? guest: u.s. navy recruited women as good breakers to break the japanese naval code system and then work on encoding our systems as well. the navy wanted its women in uniform. those women joined the waves and became naval officers. the army prefer to keep its code breaking operations civilian. there was something to be said for both methods. in the army operations, there were some 22-year-old brilliant young women, including the first deputy director of the nsa. she was directing a major unit. youou had civilian units, might have a 22-year-old woman in charge. those female officers -- the men were off fighting and the women were here in washington. those women rose really high and became lieutenants and sometimes higher than that. host: sal calling from north dakota. good morning. caller: good morning. great topic you guys are discussing. number one, i will be honest with you gu

the navy did not pass this intelligence to the captain. some people say that was the most highly classified intelligence program of the war and they had a very closely guarded restriction on who had access to this intelligence. however, as we all know, and as intelligence officers of the era later wrote, intelligence is useless if it doesn't get out to the men in the fleet and in the forward areas. so what they would do, ever since breaking the code, they would sanitize it and get it out to those people, but in this case, they didn't. why didn't they? part of the reason is a bit of complacency had probably set in. it was generally considered the boring backwater of the war. it was considered the rear. so perhaps there was a little bit of complacency. indeed, they did not send a destroyer escort along with "indianapolis" to guard her and as many of you in the room know, cruisers which "indianapolis" was a heavy cruiser, did not have sonar or underwater detection, sound detection equipment of any type. so they would always send a destroyer w

> a lot of people say let's do the navy thing where the marines and the navy, but there's little thing called blue in support of green. it is a budgetary slice of the department of the navy's budget that is dedicated to marines. you go and ask the marines did we get enough amphibious ships? they will say no, we get screwed every year. say did you get enough in marine education? athlete not. and maybe screwed us again. and so that's why like bob and shawn said, you have to really decide how you going to do this because any type of choice you make is going to great second and third order affects that may be worse than what you have right now. >> sounds like a marine under the sector of navy.

after we hear the navy hymn played by the navy band was kennedy's body carried up the steps of the capitol. you will hear from megan mccain. she's the most visible. they are walking in. >> the family is filing in right now. somebody shared a great story with us at the "meet the press" e-mail box. a young man who was enlisted and he was in training career. he gets this crazy phone call about a congressional thing and john mccain says you need to call your mother. the young mother written to mccain saying my son has not call me enough while in service. he didn't care about your station in life. this is why so many reporters liked him. for young reporters, the first serious person to take seriously would be non mccajohn mccain. he was not a snob. >> he was always real. even people who did not like him would be the first to say about it. he understood the central role of a free press in society. i love what he said to you. i hate the press, i hate you especially, chuck, but we need you. he understood the press is the only protected category, the only business under the constitution. that's som

the problem is in the region that you're about to assume command, you've got the navy, the coast guard, intelligence assets and a group of other countries. it seems to me there has to be some centralized authority so that somebody is responsible for this. i hope that this will be beyond a priority for you. this is a crisis. it is a crisis in every one of our states. we are losing one person a day in maine, and it is going to take more than a kind of a whole of government. i have been to the command center in florida. it is going to take some delegated authority and a structure -- and you are a military man. you know that you need a chain of command and somebody that's in charge. can you talk to me about working toward that end? >> senator, having someone in charge and being able to hold someone accountable is fundamental. i'm a product of admiral rickover training and the nuclear navy, and i know full well the need to have the ability to look around the table and point at somebody and hold them accountable and ultimately fire them if the decision -- if there are no results. so we have

the department of the navy budget that is dedicated to the marines. you go and asked the marines, do we get enough amphibious ships? they will say no, if you ask if they got enough in marine aviation -- that is why you have two really decide how you are going to do this because any type of choice you make is going to create second and third -- order effects that may be worse than what you have right now. >> thank you, i am sorry we are at the time, bob has to catch a flight. please say thank you to that with your applause.

today is the final farewell that the navy gets to give and to bid to john mccain. so it will be full of pomp and circumstance as our tradition holds and part is the missing man flyover which is reserved for those in aviation and he was a combat pilot. that missing man formation is -- it just gets the hairs on the back of your neck to stand up when you see that one aircraft take off and advance in altitude and head to the heavens and let the other three keep going. it's a -- again, part of who we are in the navy about saying good-bye. >> it is powerful. it offers a certain finality but at the same time there is a peace that comes with that. all right. retired rear admiral john kirby, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> the task of appointing someone to fill john mccain's senate seat. everyone knows his shoes will never be filled but how about the u.s. senate seat. that process is just beginning. arizona governor doug doucy will be in charge and the stakes are high with confirmation hearings getting under way this week for u.s. supreme court domeny brett kavanaugh in
