Mods seem to take issue at those who post a link to a "Read 'Em" without offering an opinion, so here's mine:
I don't doubt that today's Naval leaders are short in the Leadership, Discipline, or Technical Competence categories. It's in the "Creativity and Innovation" categories that perhaps wartime leaders leaders excel...but we don't know that until they're tested...and do those things. As I've opined before...we've been lucky...we don't (and won't) know who can "shoot from the hip" or call multiple audibles in the pocket until they have to.
