I think it is completely reprehensible to have an Air Force that doesn't fly and a Navy that doesn't sail and an Army that doesn't train.

My hope is that you guys could come forward with us for making permanent the THAAD deployment there.

Our vision is to have someone join the Navy and then retire, and the record all passes straight into the VA.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I'm pleased to be back here today as ranking member of this subcommittee.
