I am a veteran enlisted man, I have worked for outstanding female leaders while serving, in fact most all my leaders, male or female were of top caliber, I served in the Air Force, however a Commander of any unit has a very difficult job. To make four star Admiral is an achievement equaled by only a few. She seems to be able to listen much before making judgements, or issuing orders that can be deadly for those under her command! The Navy has done well in promoting her to Admiral!

I gotta say she is by far one of the most truly inspiring women alive today. She's the First Female Graduate of the US Naval Academy selected for Flag Rank, the First woman to command US Naval Forces Europe and US Naval Forces Africa, the first Female 4 star Admiral in the US Navy, and upon her promotion as the first Female Vice Chief of Naval Operations she became the highest ranking African American in US Navy History and the Highest Ranking Woman in the history of The US Armed Forces. She truly is an inspiration for any woman and any person of color who wants to go into the military and I think she should get a lot more recognition for not only being a great sailor but for breaking down those barriers for all the future people and that is pretty amazing.

An operational command post (Ship Captain) is far from political because of its critical point-of-impact nature. She’s proven her abilities through the adversities she’s overcome and the milestones she’s achieved. Good job!

respect

She is right to say she is the person in charge. The very word captain comes from the byzantine Greek word κατεπάνω, katepano, which signifies "the above".

She seems to be a great commander, she realizes the importance of the sailors and marines serving under her.

How could anyone down vote this video? She was already a Admiral before Obama got elected. Smh

CONGRATULATIONS ADMIRAL, I'm glad the ladies are showing the guys that the military is NO LONG THE BOYS TOWN CLUB. AND THE LADIES ARE not taking prisoners or taking names, they are beating the men at their own show. GO LADIES OF THE U.S.MILITARY!!

I have decided not to mess with the navy anymore with you on board.

I had no idea she was involved in trying to retrieve Captain Phillips from the pirate and boat hijacking after just a few days of starting the position. I was joined the Navy the year this happened.This is so impressive that a woman in a leadership role handled such heavy burdens.

Being a leader in the military these days is like being part of the board. It's more of a business than a military.

Why was she not mentioned in the Captain Phillips movie? This is just like when the black cop was not mentioned in the World Trade Center movie. Hollywood sucks!

Are you jacked a comment to the last person talked at directions to speak far louder than any credibility that I ,you ,anybody ,else her she is doing what is the great ones of always did ,and hopefully Will continue to do to do that service to her Country herself her crew The Navy and the country that you were nice the people remind me admiral Nimitz just remembered I don't know what else to tell you I guess it would be cool if she would've but I think she is soon as you got that mission accomplished she was on her way to her next mission and/or next command thank you each and everyone of you and I continue to watch and in wonder.CVL

I think people fail to realize that the heroes in this were the SEALS!

Boa noite quau sua idade quau seu nome

Its the same as most highly trained people how do you switch off when retirement comes knocking on your door ?

There's strong women like this, then there's "strong" women talking video games and getting trolled online.

Puddle pirates?????????????????????????????????????????????

🙄

🤪

A whole industry based on war and hierarchy Doesn't impress me

Got a problem? Navy SEALS. Problem solved.

prolly on her watch.idnt trust her!!

not a black women

I think she is a good choice for such a position,however we need to toughing up out navy. She may have a good skill for trying to end conflict nut the US Navy needs to be like it was in World war 2. She is a bit to liberal for what we need right now.

her hair is nappy doe
