Zumwalt Defends Mod Navy During Annapolis Speech
Navy Chief Admiral Zumwalt tells 1971 Naval Academy graduates that changes in personnel policy are not weakening discipline but require enlightened leadership. He cites past opposition to flogging and praises Marine Corps restraint on beer in barracks. At West Point and the Air Force Academy, duty trends show fewer Vietnam assignments and officials urge readiness and restraint in global tensions.
