End of March Free For All ... on Midrats
the can't miss podcast!
For our last podcast of March, come join us for and open-ended free-for-all format to look at the national security environment as we head in to April.
From the water cannons off the Command Inspection on the USS Boxer’s engineering problems, the failure of the Commission on the Future of the Navy, water cannons near the Philippines to the folly of keeping your naval bases in range of your enemies missiles ... and perhaps a dive in to the long winter for navalists that 2024 is lining up to be ... we'll cover it!
You can listen here or at the below.

Would welcome a deeper dive into USS Boxer incident with her Engineering Dept, and the larger issue of competence of the chiefs mess. While maintenance issues and shipyard backlogs have been ongoing, basic ship maintenance and job expertise amongst the uniformed ranks seems to be contributing factors to the overall repair woes.
