U.S. Navy Grapples with Severe Personnel Shortages Amid Global Commitments
Story by Emily Davis • 3h

America's Navy is in the throes of an extreme personnel crisis and is being met with a scenario where the qualified mariners cannot man the ship's forces; this in turn forces up to 17 support vessels into an idling mode. Added to this list of challenges, and quite prominently is the limited capacity at shipyards and the stretched resources from global commitments.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
