“I was reached by Navy Times to comment. I told them that if there are Sailors out there who are slipping, they are the exceptions not the rule. I also said I have full confidence that if our Chiefs see a problem, they correct it; because that is what Chiefs do.I'd like to go a little further than that here. This is not a fleet-wide issue. It is not a trend or an epidemic. Our Sailors, around the Navy, look as professional as they ever have and they take great pride in all our uniforms.
