 Deputy Commander U.S. Fleet Forces Command Vice Admiral Nora Tyson spoke about our Navy's readiness at the 2014 Sea Airspace Exposition April 9th. Readiness is our sailors, our ships, our aircraft being able to do the missions that our combatant commanders need them to do when they need them to do them. So it's the right people in the right place at the right time with the right training on platforms that we have maintained, that we modernized, that are ready to go fight and do whatever we need to do when we need them to do it. Admiral Tyson said readiness allows sailors to be forward deployed, mobile and effective warfighters. From the Defense Media Activity, I'm Petty Officer Amara Timberlake.
