US Navy deterioration continues: Bedbugs on Submarine for months
[NavyTimes] The crew of the fast-attack submarine Connecticut has been subjected to a bed bug infestation in their racks, and sailors assigned to the sub allege that the boat's command has been slow to fix the problem.

The infestation issue began while the sub was taking part in ICEX 2020 in the Arctic Ocean in March 2020 and continued during a deployment last year, according to a Connecticut petty officer who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retribution.

"We've had bed bugs for a year now," the petty officer said. "Sailors complained about getting bitten in the racks."
Meanwhile, the top Navy brass are more concerned with indoctrinating the officers and chiefs with Marxist Critical Race Theory and swearing an oath "As a key member of Task Force One Navy I will invest the time, attention and empathy required to analyze and evaluate Navy-wide issues related to racism, sexism, ableism and other structural and interpersonal biases." per the new Woke Navy Policy than they are with actual well-being of sailors, and non-SJW things like being combat effective.
