<p>Let see if I have this right… my son is in the Navy and Adm Mullen has stated that another “must” for the Navy is supporting families. Am I not a Navy Family? Do you really believe he was only speaking on Enlisted families, that families of Officers/OTC/Midshipmen somehow do not matter, do not need to be supported too? I have no misconceptions. If he is in the Navy I am a Navy family. If he is Not in The Navy then your whole chain of command argument goes down the drain. Which is it? </p>
<p>Shouldn’t Admiral Fowler support the families of his “Unit” i.e. USNA? But wait doesn’t he see families as distractions, no need for PPW or FPW?</p>
<p>What is the chain of command only applicable to our Midshipmen?</p>
