 Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Budget, Rick Admiral William Lesher, announced the release of the Department of the Navy proposed fiscal year 15 budget Tuesday. The $148 billion budget provides the resources that allow us to preserve our warfighting advantage. The fiscal year 15 budget focuses on funding for forward presence and investing in people and future capabilities. The budget also funds increases in career see-pay and career see-pay premium that recognize and reward sailors and marines that are spending time at sea. It funds a high deployment allowance that compensates for the rigors of extended deployments and it pre-stores critical skills bonuses to retain our most highly skilled sailors. Money will also be available for ship steaming, flight hours, maintenance and base operations. From the Defense Media Activity, I'm Petty Officer Tyrell Morris.
