So far 3 out of 3 reader comments at the bottom of that article somehow interpret the root cause as being the Navy's focus on diversity goals? Seriously?
Those comments are coming directly from Facebook, so they probably didn't even attempt to read the article.
Especially since the article highlighted the issue, budget cuts, more than 12 years ago (under Bush), that prevented training. And also two wars that prevented hands-on training that was meant to replace it.
