we expect a lot from the navy. and with good reason, our sailors are the best in the world, and it sends a powerful message. the sailors do what they need to do to keep the peace and the ocean lanes open. in return, the sailors should expect that we've done all we can to provide to tools, resources, and training they need to conduct their work and run return safely. thank you. i yield back my time. >> thank you. admiral moran, we now turn to you for your opening remarks. >> thank you, mr. chairman. i will be short. i want to be very clear that no matter the circumstances, the operating environment, or how strained our force might be, we should not and cannot have collisions at sea. fundamental professional seamanship is the foundation for safe operations around the fleet. all of the marvelous technology, the hardware we put together on these ships, and the power of our weapons systems are meaningless without well-trained, skilled, patriotic, and experienced sailors who are well led. you have my promise that we will

in the case of the navy, they had a glide path. that got them to close to where they wanted to be, in some point in the future it was classified. and our concern was the glide path didn't necessarily constitute exact goals. so he mentioned earlier this is going to knock them off the glide path. so being able to articulate the impacts of the decisions that you make, if you continue with demands and that kind of thing, that that's the way we're going to look at it, sir. >> again, thank you. and i just have to reiterate again how professional and independent your reports have been and so helpful for members of congress and our military. and speaking of a plan, admiral moran, do you believe that we have an effective plan for readiness recovery to erase the maintenance max logs to restore the manning shortfalls to allow the navy to meet the critical operational requirements again without risking the lives of our sailors? >> we do have a plan. we think it's an appropriate plan for recovering all the areas you just talked about, buying do

the model tt you reflect here on page six is a big navy discussion.d i and four star fleet commanders, is the model for what we asked them to do, going forward, do we need to make adjustments, that wille titl 10, s-1 if you will responsility to make cours erational commanders in apan. the model that you corrections based on the commentions. in the interim period, admiral swift is going after thiso make sure as we go through the review he's got deeper understanding a will adjust where he needs to adjust to lower the tension if you will between that off tempo and maintenance training aspects of what he is doing out in japan. >> i thought t answer to general thornberry, the navy made a tough cl in terms of carrier deployments, it was driven by external forces that we had to set up a schede and stick to it, and i think that answering the question that you just did and admiral davidson's report is going to help us sort of make sure that we are not biting off more than we n chew. i think kind of screams out from t report and gao, hat's somethi we have to un

navy called blind man's bluff. i found it a great read.the question is, is a chapter still be written under your scenario for the american submarine forces, and as a part of our triangular strategy, the national defense? >> the subsurface world will continue to be absolutely crucial, and the tension there is whether or not at some point there would be a technology that effectively renders the oceans transparent to overhead sensors. thus far, submarines are able to continue to be very well hidden. as long as that is the case, i think they will be in the end a preeminent platform of war. it hurts me to say that as the destroyer officer. if i were an 88 would really, really hurt me to say it. about the carriers. but submarines, because of their cloak of invisibility, until that is pure, the will be at the center of our strategy. that's why it's important that we build them come invest in those technologies, and secondly a final point, our allies operate submarines effectively as well as we do on diesels in close. so when you can marry, which
