Force protection is a top priority for us in the military. The reason for that is straightforward. We are around the world. I've made the point - 101 ships in our Navy are forward deployed today. When we go, we are forward deployed.
Force protection is always an issue.
We have many friends around the world. We also have a few people who don't like us. The secretary has pointed out that force protection is a top priority. The directives are clear for us on this. And so when a ship like the Cole gets ready to deploy, we train them extensively in force protection procedures.
