Who was the CNO's "Crash?"

You know what came to mind when I read this about the 19th International Seapower Symposium?
The navies of the world are undergoing a “time of great challenges” when “the stakes are massive,” the U.S. Navy’s top officer told a gathering of sea service heads Wednesday.
...
Speaking to reporters later, Roughead put the stakes into a naval context describing human trafficking, drug smuggling and terrorism as modern “tragedies.”
...
Russia and Georgia, which clashed briefly but violently in 2008, both sent military representatives.

Roughead took it as a good sign.

“I think it’s pretty positive they’re both here in the same room,” he said.
Well, watch this clip.


I would bet you a beer at Gritty's that the CNO, deep down, can't stand these things.
