i would like to make an observation based on my navy experience. when you are on board a ship out there in the middle of the ocean and the ship runs aground. the commanding officer is responsible and must accept accountability for the actions of the crew. he can be sleeping in his quarters that ship runs aground, he's going to be relieved of command. there will be an investigation of course. i hold the same to the situation here. i'm an old timer. but i have to believe in the principles of what i was taught when i came up. see your leadership needs to be held responsible for this. ms. archu -- senior leadership needs to be held responsible for this. ms. archuleta needs to go. i go back to the days of john f. kennedy and his staff. things went wrong. he had to be held accountable for it. other presidents have been held accountable for their staff and the people that work for them. this is inexcusible that this happened a while back and wasn't corrected. trust me on my knowledge of what i do for the u.s. government, this should have been taken care o

however, for my navy women were not allowed to serve overseas. until towards the end of the war in 1944 when we decided that hawaii was once again safe enough, it was a base of planning operations, and we would send waevs to help continue to fight the war. lieutenant winifred quick was selected with two of her friends, winifred love and louise wylde, to go and set the stage bring in over 5,000 waevs to support the war effort. she was pretty excited. then she told me this remarkable thing happened, and i was astounded at the story because i'm from colorado and nothing like this has ever happened to me. a denver millionaire offered the use of his oahu mansion to lieutenant quick and her friends on liberty while they were stationed in the island. a beautiful house on the beach with a large living room and oh, by the way he left it staffed all the time so the stewards would be there to support them. they went to hawaii they started to work, and that first weekend they eagerly went to this mansion. they put on their bathing suits were getting ready to

representative zinke: good morning, i am the first navy seal who served in the house of representatives. i was a seal for 23 mayors -- 20 years. my dad was a navy diver. i take the common defense seriously and personally, so imagine how i felt when harry reid recently said that -- troops was a waste of time. he was talking about providing food, body armor, and ammunition to troops. the plan also would give pay raises to troops. as the president threatened to veto the bill, senator reid thought it was a waste of time. but you are wondering, why would the president veto this bill? it had nothing to do with national security. the president and his party wanted more money for government agencies and in order to get it they wanted to hold this plan hostage. the only democrat -- they were blocking the pay raise for troops and they intended to shut down the federal government. taking care of troops should be a top priority, but it is not on the democrat to do list. to think that president obama still has no strategy for isis yet it is part of the strategy to get more money for the irs, i think they don't know the consequences are sacrif

fact, last week in order to shine a spotlight on the underlying issue on sole parental rights, my client u.s. navy captain paul tolland filed a lawsuit challenges the basis of this reality. he asked for what u.s. courts would consider a natural human right. that the sole surviving parent after a divorce and death of a spouse be granted physical custody of his child. right now, the child is with a grandparent who refuses to let him have any and all access to his daughter. the premise of the lawsuit that a biological parent has a fundamental right to his or own child has made national headlines in japan. why? as several japanese experts state in the japanese press and i quote, this case brings to light the stark cultural defenses between japanese and u.s. culture and laws concerning fundamental parental rights. again, japan simply does not recognize that parents like me, like paul tolland, like so many others have any right what is so far to parent our children. now, in addition to the abduction cases that are cases the state department refuses to you'll mystically as access cases. they're cases lik

one morning i took them to watch the navy youth hockey my team the five and six-year-olds practicingtheir defensive formations. formations. i thought he needed to be exposed. he had not decided if you want to play hockey. i was was not going to push. the moment happens. he looks up at me and i look at his eyes and relief of the alleged in jersey. we chose it from among the four others. he did not want the winter classic jersey. he looks at me. he takes out his mouthguard. can i play hockey? i look back at him i'm not going to tell you what you can and cannot do. two weeks later i took him to his 1st official hockey skating lesson 15 minutes from the naval academy. i taught him on the rental states. very long blades .. the navy hockey koechz thinking when they see him skating around they are probably going to want to advance him a couple age groups play with older kids you know papa got his own man, but maybe not i am -- giving him a pat on the back. -- he goes fred flintstone style whoops -- falls on his headed wearing a helmet i got for birthday washington capitals helmet lands onni

two uncles in world war ii my dad served in the navy on my wife's side of the family, her two brothers served in vietnam. i learned much from them. it's really the vietnam side of the family that opened my eyes in the late '70s and early '80s, because by the time i was old enough to absorb things as a young teenager family members on my site of the family, they were well beyond their service. so i don't remember my grandfather ever talking about world war i. i don't remember my uncle talking about world war ii until i started to a lot of this work and that i would take it everywhere i went and just getting talking. as a matter of fact, he would spend memorial day here with me at the concert every year. he unfortunately passed away at 90 years old this past october, as did my brother-in-law jack, who is a combat medic in vietnam, and state in the army for 22 years. i learned so much from him, so much from the veterans from my wife's two brothers. they've really got me thinking. so i got involved with vietnam veterans groups back in the '80s in the chicago area, supporting them. so 10 ye

my husband. he was a research assistant. he had a job as a research assistance. he had just returned from four years in the navy and needed some material one day and came to the health department or my department and come to find out we lived or grew up in little towns in iowa, and i mean very small towns, and had never met before. anyway, that was the beginning of a friendship and we got married about a year later. he continued to work there as a research assistant. went back to school and got his degree. he finished his degree. he left his internship. we married and lived there. he went to work for the energy commission and when they were transferred up to washington, d.c., in 1958, our family moved up here. of course, we were sad, all of us. we had met so many nice people who had been -- gone through labor like our family. if all of your friends became your family, we celebrated holidays together. it was a wonderful great experience. i feel grateful to have had the opportunity to have worked there and it was just by chance but i did enjoy it.
