Navy's Top Officer Discusses Military Role and Deployment
During a visit to Philadelphia, Admiral Daryl Caudle, the Navy's chief of operations, spoke about the military's role in a time of heightened tension.
When we get a demand signal for our troops to be deployed anywhere under a lawful order, it is my goal to provide those troops for the missions that the Secretary of War wants to actually utilize them for.
Admiral Caudle emphasized that he would follow "lawful" orders to deploy troops "anywhere", including U.S. cities. He discussed the Navy's future in Philly, military actions in the Caribbean, and his hopes for the 250th anniversary celebration.
The interview took place after Navy ships sailed up the Delaware River, marking the start of a week-long celebration of the Navy's 250th anniversary in its birthplace.
