Ray Mabus: “a great Navy is not a provocation of war, it is the surest guarantee of peace.”

The architects of our Constitution recognized the inherent value of the United States Navy and Marine Corps.

The commitment to the rebalance is real. It is absolute.

It follows then as certain as night succeeds day that without a decisive Naval force we can do nothing definitive and with it everything honorable and glorious.

It insulates us from these price spikes that basically, today, the American economy, and more importantly, American families are being held hostage by dictators around the world.
