 The Service Navy Association hosted three days of information sharing and networking at the 28th annual National Symposium. Government contracted defense companies, suppliers and commands gathered to collaborate on distributed lethality and how it improves the Navy's reach and ability to control the sea. Secretary of the Navy, Ray Mabus, spoke on this year's theme, the surface warfare strategy, a view beyond the horizon. But the simple fact is, for the Navy and the Marine Corps, our presence is our posture. That's what we do. In every case, from high-end combat to irregular warfare to disaster relief, our naval assets get there faster, we stay longer, we bring everything we need with us, and we don't have to ask anyone's permission to get the job done. That's our Navy. America's a weight team. For more information on the SNA Symposium, visit www.navysna.org.
