Sea Power
NEED
There is an urgent need to educate the American public and elected officials on the need to rebuild the fleet of the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard to meet America's security requirements in the 21st Century. CRISIS America faces a security crisis. The fleet of the U.S. Navy has dropped from 594 ships in 1987 to 294 ships today. This represents the smallest Navy in our Nation's history since 1917. For 12 years, the Nation has been ordering just six new ships a year, on average. This is the lowest rate of naval ship production since 1932, and if continued, our Navy will shrink to a fleet of 180 ships. While the Navy's fleet is on a dive course, the need for a larger and more capable fleet is more imperative now than at any other time in our history. SUPPORT Rebuilding America's Navy and other sea services will only be achieved through an active, organized, grass roots education campaign led by Sea Power Ambassadors from the ranks of the shipbuilding industry, Navy League, labor unions, Surface Navy Association, Submarine League, Naval Academy Alumni Association, among other stakeholders and concerned citizens. The President, presidential candidates, U.S. Senators, and U.S. Representatives need to hear from multiple constituents through multiple means of communication that rebuilding America's Sea Power should be a national priority. RESOURCES This site, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SeaPower/messages/1, will provide resources to document the need: information about the maritime fleet, the shipbuilding industry, contractors, and recent documents pertaining to Sea Power. Of particular note are the hundreds of links offered.
