It's Preparedness, Stupid.

摘要

In 1992, Bill Clinton made a statement about the fundamental role of the economy in a nations success when he said it's the economy stupid. From my experience over the past decade, the same could be said of the link between preparedness and a successful Navy. It's that basic because in many ways it is the linchpin of our success. It is a core task for Navy. Significantly, it gives Government confidence in the Navy, it reinforces the relevance of the Navy and highlights the professionalism of those who serve, and all that entails within and outside Navy. It is all about preparedness!
