 Welcome to All Hands Update, I'm Petty Officer Andrew Johnson. Naval leaders, government officials and members of private industry gathered to discuss the Surface Navy's future at the 27th Annual Surface Navy Association, or SNA Symposium. Commander Naval Surface Forces Vice Admiral Thomas Rowden spoke about the adapting surface fleet in a changing world. But the world has changed. And with it, so must our assumptions and our preconceptions. That is what we're doing in surface warfare. We are adapting to a changed environment. We are responding to national strategic imperatives. The symposium runs January 13th through 15th. For more information about the symposium, visit the SNA website.
