Actually, this sounds like a good idea when you read the article. It just throws me off when the government does something that makes sense. It sounds like they're caving to political correctness, but, at least according to the article, it should be cheaper, and help the ship run more smoothly.
No doubt the guy who thought this up will be fired. Common sense has no place in the defense department.
