throughout the 1800s constitution served actively in the united states navy. you would have expected this ship to have lasted 15 to 20 years. so launched in 1797. she had her victories during the war of 1812, but she continued in service. the only image of her under sail was 1881. this is off the capes of virginia and she is serving as a training vessel and they would serve on this famous frigate each though the navy is make the transition to steam. sailors would still climb aloft and set sail. the naval board looked and decided that she was getting too old and too weak and they shouldn't be sailing her anymore. so they lowered the ship's masts. you can see her with the mast is in sections and they've taken them down in the new york navy yard, but the time she celebrated her 100th birthday she's actually been roofed over, people are shocked when they see this, instead of destroying an old ship i like to think of adaptive reuse. they built a barn over the deck. she was being used as a receiving ship so if you were between assignments you might be stationed on c

comments is not because i want to be an a-hole, it is because i took an oath when i joined the united states navy to support and defend the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. when i watch elected officials take the attitude that they can be disrespectful to members of the public that come here to speak, where they can ignore people, and they can do it with such blatant disregard, to the oath they took to support and defend the constitution, whenever anybody individual or individuals -- individual or citizen of the city has a right to come talk to you about anything they feel you need to hear. maybe if you did not talk so much yourself, you would not be so worried about the time constraints and constantly looking for ways to cut back on what the citizens are allowed to say. trying to find these roles and things, which violate the constitution by saying that is electioneering or you cannot say that, that is this, you cannot say that. in the bottom line is if you are right, this will commit to time, and if you are love -- wrong, they lost the right to speak. commissioner compost

the united states navy and the united states air force are the two power projection services of the american armed forces. and it is our services that will enable the army and the marine corps to operate should that be required. i think the key thing here is that there is a proliferation of technology. certainly it is true in the western pacific. it is likewise true in other areas, including the persian gulf. if we did not respond to these developments, we would be pushed further away from our objective areas with all the attendant disadvantages that would entail. so the cooperation between the navy and the air force is simply what one would expect operators to do. that is to maximize each other's capabilities to support one another and projecting power into areas where adversaries want to limit that access or foreclose our opportunities to maneuver within the theater. >> one thing which seems a little bit discordant, the united states air force has long been both the pioneer and advocate of stealth and the value of stealth in order to be able to operate in any antiaccess situation. it's use

this is one of the most successful ship building programs ever in the united states navy because it is one of the best built and best value for the taxpayer and requires a fair and open competition for contracting. right now, our navy has the lowest shipbuilding total in generations and many predictions are the numbers are going to shrink further. we cannot afford to be cutting additional ships from our budget. is extremely important to our national security and i urge my colleagues to oppose this amendment and i yield back. the chair: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. who seeks time? the clerk will read. the clerk: page 33, line 12, operational tests and evaluation, defense, $185,268,000 to remain available for obligation until september 30, 2014. title 5, revolving and management funds, defense working capital funds, $1,516,184,000. national defense funds, $564,3 36,000 to remain available until expended. title 6 -- the chair: the gentleman from georgia. mr. kingston: i ask unanimous consent that the remainder of the bill through page 66 line 7 be considered as read

we are going to take our united states navy down to a level it has not been since 1915. we are going to take our united states air force in has not been at since we created the modern day united states air force. we do not have a credible military threat right now. we have men and women who have been on five and six combat tours of duty. they are supposed to have a narrowly defined mission sets. we are supposed to believe they are being -- the soup de jour. what we have failed to do is look at the world broken down with the geographical aor, and look from the next 10-15 years. what is the bible direct we are going to face? and build -- what is being -- the viable threat we are going to face? it cannot be budget based. it has to be based on the threat that is out there. when you look across the globe right now, when you look at the belligerence you see coming out of russia, when you look at the fact that china, with the trade imbalance that they have, their growing economy is not going toward improving the standard lot of living of the chinese citizens. the best standard o

we are going to take our united states navy down to a level that it's not been since 1950. and yet people are saying we need the united states military. we don't have a credible military threat right now. we just don't. we have men and women who have been on five and six combat tours of duty. we turn over to our special operators who have a narrowly defined mission and all of a sudden we believe that they are the soup du jour when it comes to anything that is happening out there, send in the navy s.e.a.l.s, send this, send that. that is not the point. what we have failed to do in the united states of america is look at the world broken down with the geographical centcom's, the africom's the eucom's and look from the next 10 to 15 years what are the viable threats we are going to face? and then build the capability and capacity based upon that. what we end up doing with the united states military is the look and say here is $20, figure out how you are going to protect the united states of america. it cannot be budget base. it has to be based on the threat of that is out there

came out of the conflict as the clear winners of that, and it also showed that the united states needed a strong navy as well as a strong army, that it couldn't defend its coast without a strong navy, without seagoing ships, blue water ships. previously during the jefferson administration the concept had been to have a very small navy, small army, and not get engaged in european wars and this was although it was probably a cost savings in some way, it certainly showed that this philosophy was not able to defend the american coast, the chesapeake bay, from superior naval force such as that of great britain. >> some of these things you can't learn just from archival records. a lot of the stuff that's written down in the historical record is the main events, major people throughout history, but you don't always write down the simple things about how daily life was aboard an early 19th century naval vessel, for example. we can learn about the horrors of dentistry, for example, by looking at that dental tool and imagine having a tooth pulled by something like that. the surgical scissors, they have differe

farr: for over 30 dwhreerks united states navy and coast guard, both under republican an democratic administrations, former secretaries of state and u.s. military personnel have been consistent and strong proponents of the u.s. joining the law of the sea convention. defense secretary panetta recently said not since we acquired the lands of america west and alaska have we had such a great opportunity to expand u.s. sovereignty. former secretary of defense robert gates said the lew of the sea provides clear guidance on appropriate use of maritime do main. as the world's major maritime power with the longest coastline, the u.s. has more to gain from legal certainty and public order in the world's oceans than any other country. it has been supported by every president since ronald reagan. the time is due for the other body to take leadership role and ratify the treaty. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentleman from texas seek recognition? >> i ask unanimous consent to address the house for one minute and revise and extend my remarks. the speaker pro

hemisphere of the united states trying to stop the flow of drugs from central and south america into the united states. there's always been the coast guard was always the lead agency and the navy operated independently from the coast guard. in this particular operation, they have now, working together amongst each other and with other nations' coast guards and law enforcement agencies, so within the just the first seven months the fact that they've brought in over a billion dollars worth of drugs has been an incredibly successful and what's even more unique is what they've told us that over time, the navy ship, when they're in these indictments has a u.s. coast guard law enforcement attachment these are the guys specially trained over years to go on and identify drug runners and be able to board their ships and they're specially trained, so a navy ship will run up a coast guard cutter flag, warship will then transition from being a military drug operation, military warship, to becoming u.s. coast guard and these drugs that you can see on board of the "uss nicolas," was over this -- over this five-month period among these six different interdictions that they were able to nab,

we will not be able to go far more likely on the new requirements on our navy and ocean industries the united states is absent. the job creating activities on the decisions ratified. they don't want to be at a disadvantage. by not joining the law of the sea, we are diminishing the scope. some argued that the united states succession and they are unnecessary to secure the legal basis for companies to fully exploit oil, natural gas, and mineral wealth on the ocean floor. that is not what the opinion of the american companies is. that might invest the resources in this activity. they tell us without the certainty of title provided by law of the sea convention, they would not go forward with many projections requiring large investments. their concern is that after doing the expensive exploration, research, testing and construction necessary to explore the site, they have to be certain. they challenge their claim. the drilling and mining companies prefer to pay a small royalty beginning in the sixth year of production. in return for international system that gives them undisputed game for the resources p

eventually, he was exchanged, returned to the united states, continued to serve in the navy, and in the merchant service. serves again on "constitution" in the 1820s. we see him here as an older man, because in the 1830s, he was serving on a merchant ship in a southern port. we still had slavery in the united states, he was walking without his papers, and he was arrested as a runaway slave. he told the local judge his story, and the local magistrate wrote down his whole story, that he was david dubias born free in boston, beacon hill, sent the letter to the secretary of the navy and asked them to confirm his naval service. so we were able to find a letter at the national archives from the treasurer, saying, yes, david dubias was paid in 1814 for his service on "constitution." what we don't know, the local records at the courthouse burned. so we don't know if that letter was enough to free david from prison, or if he was sold into slavery. and here you see richard dunn, who we learned was injured during the battle and lost his leg. we've just recently learned that another museum in ports
