A lot to consider in this Navagation Plan. What is your role in helping the Navy achieve these goals?

🚢 Exciting news in the maritime industry! The U.S. Navy has unveiled plans to retire 48 ships between 2022-2026, marking a significant shift in naval strategy and resource allocation. These plans, now up for legislative consideration, include transferring vessels to MARAD, Foreign Military Sales (FMS), or recycling. This strategic move reflects the Navy's commitment to modernization and optimization, ensuring that resources are efficiently utilized to meet evolving defense needs. It also opens up opportunities for collaboration and partnership both domestically and internationally.

PEO MLB plays an integral role in supporting the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Adm. Lisa Franchetti’s recently released Navigation Plan (NAVPLAN) 2024. The NAVPLAN is the CNO’s strategic guidance to the fleet and will ensure America’s Warfighting Navy remains the world’s premier fighting force. Here is a list of just a few of the areas where MLB supports NAVPLAN 2024’s strategic focus areas to ensure readiness for the possibility of war with the People’s Republic of China and enhance long-term advantage: 📍 Readiness and Modernization: NAVPLAN 2024 emphasizes readiness for sustained high-end joint and combined combat by 2027. PEO MLB contributes to this by providing advanced, modern IT solutions that enhance the Navy’s capabilities. These solutions ensure that the Navy's business and financial operations are robust and resilient, directly supporting better decision-making and operational readiness. 📍 Human Resources and Talent Management: Ensuring the right people with the right skills are in place is a key component of NAVPLAN 2024. It specifically mentions Ready Relevant Learning (#RRL) as a critical element when it comes to investing in warfighter competency and enhancing the Navy’s training and education systems. Our RRL team’s efforts are part of the broader NAVPLAN 2024 goal to improve the Navy’s readiness and effectiveness by ensuring that all personnel are well-trained and prepared for the high-end fight. 📍 Sustainment and Logistics: NAVPLAN 2024 calls for improved sustainment and logistics capabilities for naval operations, as well as improved maintenance processes and reduced naval asset downtime. PEO MLB's logistics efforts ensure that the Navy's supply chain and logistics operations are optimized, providing the necessary support for sustained operations. Our Logistics IT (#LOGIT) portfolio’s Naval Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (N-MRO) capability is a crucial element in ensuring the readiness and sustainability of the fleet. N-MRO will eliminate maintenance delays for ships, submarines, and aircraft — a critical factor for maintaining operational readiness and ensuring readiness. PEO MLB is proud to support the strategic priorities of NAVPLAN 2024. The work we do each day helps ensure that the Navy is prepared and well-equipped to meet future challenges and maintain our nation’s warfighting advantage. All Ahead Flank!

CNO DOING HER JOB I watched the video in its entirety. For those Service Branch Heads such as the CNO I would assume you have taken on similar tasks for contingency plans for future conflicts. It is at this time more than ever the US Forces sink their initiatives and posture moving forward to combat any threat in the future. From a GEO political view, the threat is vast, we need to concern ourselves with varying countries warfare capabilities. Just as important, actually more importantly is we do not fight the next war. Never before has the world faced a potential threat of global destruction, surpassing WWII. It is way past time that serious global discussions of ALL leaders start having consequential meetings and discussions concerning world peace. This goes well beyond any established sitting organizations with the intent to detour War. The UN is a prime example of failure. So, my proposed agenda is a regular scheduled global summit of all countries leaders only. This includes those countries that are at war now. Just maybe by bringing those leaders families to the summit and have the spouses and children interact just might be a wake up call. Let's all pray for PEACE!

Flight deck yoga is a thing.

Defense officials from the United States Department of Defense 🇺🇸, #Norway 🇳🇴, and the UK Ministry of Defence 🇬🇧 recently concluded a conference with Naval Special Warfare in Virginia Beach, June 24-27, 2024. The constructive discussions focused on establishing common standards for Arctic-capable forces, optimizing intelligence-sharing practices, and facilitating persistent training and engagements. The three countries noted the need to enhance readiness and effectiveness in addressing evolving operational challenges in the #Arctic and High North. Commander of Naval Special Warfare Command - Navy SEAL & SWCC Teams, Rear Adm. Keith Davids, said “These important partnerships enhance the security cooperation between the United States, the United Kingdom, and Norway and are crucial for addressing common security threats. These strategic partnerships strengthen our collective defense, enhance stability, and encourage competitors to adhere to international norms." #SOF #People #Partners #Teammates

This WSJ piece highlights another major area of decline in United States maritime power. The DoD and Congress must make strategic and resource informed decisions that prioritize naval power be that gray hulls, yards, or merchant fleets. As our founders stated, we will sustain a Navy which is paramount to protecting the US, securing sea trade routes and projecting power abroad. This can’t be fixed with the recurring continuing resolutions and inter-service rivalry. We must make real priorities and stick to them.

Granite State Manufacturing congratulates all involved in the launch of the Maine Defense Industry Alliance (MDIA) launch. This partnership, aimed at training thousands for essential roles in Maine's defense industrial base, signifies a significant step in aligning national defense needs with economic advancement. Similar to New Hampshire's Talent Pipeline Program and the Precision Manufacturing Boot Camp at Nashua Community College, the new welding lab at York County Community College (YCCC) demonstrates a solid commitment to revitalizing essential skilled trades critical in the defense manufacturing sector. These efforts in Maine and New Hampshire reinforce the submarine industrial base and broader defense industry, providing pathways from poverty to stable, family-sustaining, purpose-driven career opportunities. By investing in high-quality training for in-demand jobs, MDIA and similar organizations like SENEDIA are not merely enhancing our defense capabilities but investing in our people, economy, and the fabric of our nation. #USNavy #buildsubmarines #defenseindustry #submarineindustrialbase #submarines #welding #machining

Out in the Fleet, not missing a beat! BQC-NR students ENS Zhe Liu and ENS Kristine Banzuelo are stomping the deck plates and using what they've learned from the BQC-NR course to help them conduct audits onboard the USS Mustin (DDG 89) during the ship's Supply Management Certification preparations. Specifically, these U.S. Navy Reserve officers are performing location audits, which means they must thoroughly examine 2,849 line items. That's a lot! Great work, ENS Banzuelo and ENS Liu! #hardwork #whatrightlookslike #fromseabedtospace #navyreserves
