An alliance of partners is helping to make these activities happen. Again in 2015 we offer many opportunities for members to discuss, share, and be a part of naval history. On April 15, the NHF is partnering for two member events. Once again at the Washington Navy Yard, we are joining with the Naval Submarine League to cohost the annual Submarine History Seminar, which will focus on the submarine-launched ballistic missile partnership this nation has maintained with Great Britain for a half a century. Meanwhile at Fraunce’s Tavern in New York, we will join with the local Navy League Council to honor Commo. Dudley W.

Truver: Wanted: U.S. Navy Mine Warfare Champion COMMENTARY WANTED U.S. NAVY MINE WARFARE CHAMPION Scott C. Truver Successfully implementing innovation within a bureaucracy ultimately requires a champion to navigate the inherently political processes of securing sponsorship and resourcing. This is just as important to the very small as to the very large programs, particularly during periods of fiscal austerity. “It’s fragmented,” com- mented retired rear admiral Paul Ryan, former commander of the U.S. Navy’s Mine Warfare Command, in April 2014. “There is no single champion for mine warfare.”1 This lack of support presents challenges for the U.S. Navy and the nation, as the service struggles to articulate, and to muster the necessary backing for, mine warfare (MIW) strategies, programs, capabilities, and capacities. The task of confronting these challenges is complicated by the fact that MIW comprises not only mine-countermeasures (MCM—that is, minesweeping and mine hunt- ing) systems and platforms but also mines that can be employed to defeat our adversaries’ naval strategies and forces.

We made remarkable progress in our efforts have already seen a return on our investments in more efficient energy to achieve greater energy security for the use. Last year, we launched the first hybrid ship in the Navy, the USS Navy and the nation. I am committed to Makin Island. In its maiden voyage, the Makin Island saved almost $2 positioning our Naval forces for tomorrow’s million in fuel costs. Over the lifetime of the ship, we can save $250 challenges, and changing the way the million at last year’s fuel prices.

  • NPS Evaluates Biofuels for Fleet Power by Amanda D
    U.S. Navy photo by Javier Chagoya NPS Evaluates Biofuels for Fleet Power By Amanda D. Stein As the largest consumer of fuel in the United States, the Department of Defense has recognized the need to reduce its own dependence on foreign oil, and explore cheaper, safer alternatives. In support of those efforts, Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus announced in 2009 a number of energy initiatives for the Navy, culminating in, among other things, a 50 percent reduction in petroleum- based fuel consumption in the fleet by 2020. A team of researchers at the Naval Postgraduate School, in collaboration with various other re- search institutions, is applying their experience in combustion to help the Navy meet Mabus’ goals. NPS Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) Associate Professor Dr. Christopher Brophy, and MAE Professor and Chairman Dr. Knox Millsaps, are working to help the Navy understand how alternative fuels will perform in existing gas turbine and diesel engines. The goal is to seam- lessly transition to the biofuel blends without having to change any of the engines’ components. “This research will not only greatly benefit the Navy but our entire nation … Supplementing our use of conventional fossil fuels with renewable fuels will significantly increase our energy independence and energy security.” – NOAA Lt j.g. John Petersen, MAE student “The Naval Postgraduate School’s part in this is really helping with certification, to give the Navy confidence through fundamental measurements that the fuels look, smell and taste the same, so to speak,” Millsaps explained. “These fuels should have the form, fit and function to serve as direct drop-in replacements.” The NPS team is testing the combustion of the alternatives to the Navy’s current JP-5 and F-76 fuels — algae-based, hydro-reformed diesel, and camelina-based, hydro-reformed jet fuel blends.

Jensen, AN EXPLORATION OF THE INFLUENCE AFLOAT MAINTENANCE HAS ON THE 21ST CENTURY NAVAL SAILOR’S REENLISTMENT DECISION ___________________________________ By KATHRYN SAMPSON WIJNALDUM ___________________________________ A DISSERTATION IN PRACTICE _________________________________ Submitted to the faculty of the Graduate School of Creighton University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education in Interdisciplinary Leadership _________________________________ Omaha, NE April 6, 2019 Copyright ©2019, Kathryn Sampson Wijnaldum This document is copyrighted material.

Similarly, during periods of lengthy maintenance for afloat naval commands sailors’ ability to perform their tasks in the scope of their trained occupational specialty is challenged. Maintenance availability periods are a vulnerable time for first-term enlisted sailors, and their mentorship and development must become a command's priority if the goal is to retain trained personnel.

I would especially like to recognize the anonymous contribution of the dedicated public servants who agreed to participate in this study and by sharing their experiences of working together making decisions about the future Navy, helped contribute to a more thorough understanding about how the Department of the Navy headquarters actually works. I would like to acknowledge the support of my supervisor and co-workers at CNIC. They kept the proverbial trains running while I took time off to finish this project. Finally, I would like to thank the members of my Committee and Professor Baker, my Committee Chair for her endless patience, understanding and faith that gave me confidence when I was at the point of giving up and whose gentle but firm guidance was instrumental in bringing this project to completion.
