Political Quotes

On the recordApril 19, 1994
I would say we have a serious problem in the whole investigative services, not just for the Navy but for the other services. But we also have it not simply in sexual harassment cases, it is across the board. And I have talked at length with the new Secretary of Defense and with Secretary Aspin about that. We need to have more continuity. We need to have more professionalism. There is too much rotation in the military for people to become professional. I have run an investigative subcommittee now for 10 or 12 years. Investigators are wonderful people, but they have to have supervision, they have to have careful supervision. I think that is what we are missing. We do have a system.
