Dear Miss Fit:
The other aspect of reduced manning that's scary is the impact on damage control. I've long contended that one of the U.S.N.'s most notable strengths is superior damage control. But it takes a lot of troops to (a) keep operating the ship, (b) keep fighting the ship, and (c) put the fire out and stop the flooding.
I suspect that there are technical work-arounds to ameliorate the maintainability issues inherent in reduced manning, but the damage control issues seem to me to be less tractable.
Regards,
Frank
