Meet The New Boss...

...same as the old boss. Like most Navy folks, I've been waiting around to see who President-elect Obama is going to nominate to be the new Secretary of the Navy -- I've been predicting someone who's GLBTTQ, as a way of making some sort of political statement. This story from the Navy Times, however, reveals who Obama's first SecNav will be -- Donald Winter. He's agreed to stay on the job for up to 2 months until his replacement is named. I guess the incoming Administration thinks he's been doing an OK job. [The article also discusses why he thinks it's OK to have a 3 year gap between decommissioning USS Enterprise (CVN 65) and commissioning the Gerald Ford.]

What scuttlebutt have you heard about who's going to be the next SecNav?
