ARLINGTON, Va. – The Navy should be piqued more easily by the things it’s not doing well, according to the commander of U.S. Fleet Forces Command.

“We need to be offended by not having the right manning. We need to be offended by not getting ships out at the right time,” Adm. Daryl Caudle said at the annual Surface Navy Association conference Jan. 12. “It needs to be palpable, and not just like, ‘Okay,’ and just kind of kick the can down the road.”

Caudle, who said in his opening remarks that he wants more ships and a bigger budget, said that the Navy does not have the “luxury to do more with less.”

“We can’t just go build a bunch of ships and not fill them with the right equipment, the right number of people,” Caudle said.

That criticism seems harsh for an organization that was able to build an aircraft carrier for $14 Billion (or whatever they actually spent) and do it with such eagle eye oversight they built it without weapons elevators.
