Navy budget cuts threaten national security, Denfeld testifies

Unclear wording but Denfeld told a congressional committee on October 13 that Pentagon money cuts would weaken the Navy. He claimed the unification act was mishandled and that the Army and Air Force seek control of the Navy. After his testimony, it was rumored the remarks could end his job. Matthews' letter suggests factors prior to October 4 influenced the situation.
