Navy to discipline officers over Tailhook scandal
The Navy sent 70 names to commanding officers for possible action following the Las Vegas Tailhook incident. The list includes six assault suspects and 57 people connected to the gantlet or nearby areas, while two may have impeded the inquiry. Navy leaders will question commanding officers of hospitality suites and assess their knowledge and actions. Barbara Pope said actions against officers will be taken this week.

The USPS has reduced staff from 750,000 with major cuts already made, previously stated to rely on attrition rather than layoffs. Pace said shrinkage of labor force would occur if volumes don’t improve in the coming months. Unions offered no immediate comment.
