    I will refrain from what I really want to say because this is Michelle's special moment.
    Michelle, you make us all so proud, now more girls will follow in your footsteps after 236 years. God bless you forever.

    Admiral Howard has earned everything she's achieved in the Navy!
    She was the first African-American woman to command a U.S. Navy ship, USS Rushmore.
    Admiral Howard was the Commanding
    Officer of the Squadron Expeditionary Strike Group (ESG) 5, maritime security operations in the North Persian Gulf. And she personally coordinated the rescue of Captain Phillips. Also, it was her voice that was heard in the movie "Captain Phillips" when rescuing the ship’s commander!
    Admiral Michelle Howard, went on to become Vice Chief of Naval Operations.
    And may all the naysayers who are posting negative shit, you can hate but there are many like her throughout the armed forces!
    Semper Fi

    You know this is what alot of young Americans dream of graduating from the military. Some have this dream since teenage. I cant help but to think how safe are this military bases and will the military really protect our kids that join the military. The reason i say this . When i think of all the rumors that go around sexually assaulted by members of there own i think of the young lady VANESSA GUILLEN THATS GONE MISSING. HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE. . I HAVE GREAT CONCERN SO MUCH IS GOING ON THAT ITS HARD TO THINK THAT AMERICA THE LAND OF GREAT PEOPLE IS FALLING APART .

    1. It's not "rank" of admiral, it's "grade" of admiral.
    2. More ribbons than Audie Murphy.

      Wayne Fletcher Have you looked at the American Gov lately. There is no HONOR in our Gov. or military as of date, So don't get to high on your horse just because you wear some uniform. All of you serve a bunch of crook and none of you are doing anything about it. Choke on your boot. You are brain washed. Our leaders are selling out Americans and you are in on it if you are part of it and not taking a stand to stop it. So sure, I would not wear that uniform today. I did sign up when I was young, but something happened in my life and I could no longer serve. And just because you wear that uniform does not mean you are a good man or woman. This is crap. Those things are earned. And all the good men see what is going on, and would get what I am saying and understand.

      Wayne Fletcher Everybody in my family served in war. My grand father was awarded the French Legion of Honor for his service in WWII fighting to give them and us freedom form the Nazis, the very same scum that is in high treason in the White House now. You don't know crap about me. And you no nothing about honor. Everything you have was given to you by the MEN that went before you, but yet you and the ones that think like you do not honor them with your service. This great country is being taken down by your MASTERS. So you wear a uniform, so what. The Nazis wore uniforms too. You will see soon. War is coming. I pray you make the right decisions. Because when your Masters are done with you, where are you going to go when America is no longer here. Have you asked yourself why they are letting Europe and America be over run by all the muslims that hate us and what America stands for?? Have you asked yourself why Obama pulled out and told them he was pulling out and when he was pulling out??? Have you ever asked yourself why they left all that military equipment for them just to walk in and take?? How about doing air drops of ammo and weapons to ISIS. Do you ever wonder about this??? Have you ever studied American history??? And I don't mean just the race thing to which I am sure this is your biggest concern. You don't get it my man, you just don't, or you would. And let me ask, how would a person know they were deceived about something??? That's right, they would not unless someone that was not told them so. You will see soon enough. You are on the wrong side of history. God bless you anyway!!!
