Admiral Lisa Franchetti Takes Charge Of The U.S. Navy

 

Daily Mail: Lisa Franchetti takes over as acting Navy head - despite not being the first choice of Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin 

* Chief of Naval Ops. Adm. Mike Gilday retired and handed the torch to Navy Admiral Lisa Franchetti in a ceremony 

* Franchetti will serve in acting capacity until officially confirmed by the Senate

* Franchetti is one of over 300 military officers whose nominations are on hold in the Senate 

The first woman took over as chief of the US Navy in 'acting capacity,' even though Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin nominated someone else for the role. 

Chief of Naval Ops. Adm. Mike Gilday retired and handed the torch to Navy Admiral Lisa Franchetti, who will serve in an acting capacity until officially confirmed by the Senate after her nomination by President Joe Biden. 

If confirmed, Franchetti would make history as the first woman to serve on the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Must read

Who Will be the next Chief of Naval Operations?

- No War college.

- Got her masters degree out of a Crackerjack box!

- No wartime awards although the US has been involved in the War on Terror for 22 years.
Her commands never won awards.

"Her biography does not mention any of her commands received awards while she was in command."

Preaching to the choir here, obviously, but worth repeating that this person will cost the U.S. over 90% of its at-sea hardware and personnel when the Chi/Coms decided it's 'now or never', and go hot.

Yup, keep pulling that "D" handle, folks.

gay boys running scared and think women can not do what they can do except none of them could qualify to do shit aboard a navy vessel.
In 2020, Rear Admiral Melissa Bert became the first woman to serve as the Judge Advocate General and Chief Counsel of the Coast Guard. In 2021, Linda L. Fagan became the Vice Commandant of the Coast Guard and the Coast Guard's first female four-star admiral. On May 11, 2022, the U.S. Senate confirmed Linda L.

Brent Ramsey is a retired Navy captain, who gave their opinion Admiral Lisa Franchetti.

7:55 is a lickspittle, who follows the part line.

Ramsey read Franchetti's rack and was unimpressed. No, Ramsey did not look at her cup size. He read her rack, her rows of medals and ribbons. When you read the medals of ribbons and medals a person has and well as learn the reason they were awarded those medals and ribbons, you get a measure of the person. Franchetti is underwhelming.


Who is 7:55? they/them is a person whose commander deemed them unfit to be a rifleman. So they made them a runner, a messenger, and errand boy. It is the same job Htler had. Htler was unpromotable. So he became a messenger.

What does 7:55's rack looks like? We do know xer has a notch in xer's belt. They got it after they shagged a homeless, destitute waif. How much did the cost? A pack of cigarettes?

Poor old General Grant, a total failure, was put in charge and with a horrible record somehow did ok. Unless you are a sympathizer with the South.

Grant had an excellent record. He was given a small command in Missouri. He succeeded. So they gave him more responsibility. He succeeded in taking 2 forts in Western Kentucky. The rest is history. He was much better than McClellan (D).

Another step by the Obama/Biden cabal to weaken the US and the US military. By the time the Democrats are finished with the US, the people will be living in poverty and the nation will be bankrupt, having defaulted on its astronomical debt.
