Respectfully Requesting Navy Leadership to help me review these NAVY IG Reports “Systemic Weakness” on the FFG’s I served and my outcome?

Google Will find these IG Reports

PO3 Aaron Hassay What are you needing or looking for? I couldn't find these reports. I worked at ATG and served on an FFG, would like to help, just not sure what you are looking for....

Is there more? What is your end-state? Is "your" situation related to these IG Reports from 1995?

I could not pull up these reports. Attach a link to these reports and then state exactly what you want someone to help you with. You need to provide more information.

So, you want folks to read 100+ pages of these policy guidance documents, IG report, and a paper submitted to the War College without any heads up as to what should be the focus of such a reading?

PO3 Aaron Hassay I still don't understand what you are looking for, other than you will explain more later. That is an unfair presumption of people's time, who want to help. I've got links to 100 pages of stuff, and not sure what you are wanting.

If your argument or issue, is minimum or Optimal manning, you are preaching to the choir. I was on a DDG that is prescribed 375 sailors and officers. We were told to cut 40% of the crew yet, still do the same job. Did 3 high tempo deployments back to back to back with many less people then we needed. It sucked, we did it. Back when I was a young BM3, we had 12 sailors in a division of 32 depart the morning of deployment with no replacements (apparently they got violently seasick). The optimal manning problem is still occurring when you look at the Fitzgerald accident that killed sailors (Optimal manning and lack of training was serious contributing factor). My point in this is that each generation has the same issues, and it is because we never have enough sailors, yet still have to cover 70% of the globe.

If you have something specific you want me to look at, and a specific question or concern, I will be more than happy to look at it.
