This
is unbelievable. It's not only sad what Obama has done to the Navy but
to all branches of our military. Hopefully, this will soon be over.
To all you military personnel and sailors out there, salute your new Vice
Chief of Naval Operations. And those from the other branches
of services and civilians, you can now bow and have no worries because
Obama’s on the job. Obama's new Admiral - April 22, 2016
How does one get 7 rows of ribbons, without any combat?
Oh, she showed up for work most of the time (4 rows), is female (2.5 rows),
and clearly a mixed-race minority (.5 rows).
Admiral Michelle Howard, USN, is not in command of the entire US Navy,
however, she was recently promoted to Vice Chief of Naval Operations,
second in command to the CNO. The selection process leading to her
promotion to 4 STAR rank and her current position, is rather unique in
a peacetime US Navy. The supposed plan is to eventually promote
her to Chief of Naval Operations (CNO).
Admiral Howard had command of only one non-capital ship, the USS Rushmore
(LSD-47), when she was promoted to Flag rank, which was unique.
She eventually received orders as the Senior Military Assistant to the
Secretary of the Navy, through January 2009. It then appears that Secretary
of the Navy Ray Mabus mentored her thru one senior billet after another,
bypassing other highly-qualified combat-trained, more senior Flag Officers.
During the process, she received orders to all the proper Command and
Staff Colleges in order to prepare her for each new command assignment.
Mabus' careful guidance led her to her current billet.
In the last 7 years, Obama has modified the selection process for Flag
and General Officer, by ensuring the potential selectee's compliance with
his 'Social Experiment On Diversity', as a condition for whether an officer
will be considered for promotion to Admiral or General.
