One week prior to the July 4th holiday, and it's time to catch up on the latest events in the maritime security arena ... and an arena it is.
We have a new SECNAV nom ... but no one is talking about it.
We have the CNO expending T-AKE amounts of personal, professional, and institutional capital defending quaint academic social theory, FORD enjoys a banging time at sea, and the Royal Navy enjoys a Russian air and sea spectacular!
...and that is just the first few things.
As always with our free for alls, we have an open chat room and open phone line to the studio for those who join us live ... so don't be shy.
Join us live if you can and roll in with your preferred topic in the chat room or call the switchboard number right here on the showpage.
