In a normally quiet House Armed Services Subcommittee on Readiness
hearing yesterday, a prepared Congressional Representative Elaine
Luria held two Navy shipbuilding and vessel sustainment leaders to
account, demanding–and often not getting–answers about the Navy’s
Optimized Fleet Response Plan surface ship deployment scheme, the
Navy’s carrier maintenance infrastructure, and the Navy’s brand-new
$13 billion super-carrier, the troubled USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78).

It was a masterful performance by the first-term Congressional
Representative from Virginia’s Second District, and it earned
accolades from her peers on the Committee.

USS Gerald R Ford will be the first of its kind to
have gender neutral bathrooms.
July 25 2017


Each sleeping quarter in the ship, which can hold
more than 5,000 sailors, will not have urinals in
their bathrooms, but instead have seated toilets
that can be used by anyone.

While seated toilets cost more, are less sanitary
and take up more space than urinals, they do have
their advantages.

A Navy spokeswoman said that having seated toilets
will make it easier to switch room assignments for
each sleeping quarter - or berth - between genders.

This is designed to give the ship flexibility because
there aren't any berthing areas that are dedicated to
one sex or the other,' Operations Specialist 1st Class
Kaylea Motsenbocker told Navy Times.

Women account for 18 per cent of sailors in the Navy.
