Acting Secretary of the Navy Hung Cao, who fled Communist Vietnam as a child, delivered his first address to naval personnel. He outlined two primary missions: first, to take care of sailors and ensure they have what they need to accomplish their missions, and second, to build more ships for the fleet. The appointment of Cao, a former Navy captain and Republican congressional candidate, follows the recent dismissal of the previous Navy Secretary amid reported Pentagon turmoil.
