#3  The LCS have been having severe 'manning' (can we still say that?) issues where the crew is just too small. Automation just didn't replace a warm human body.

Now the key question: Did some woke "non-male rating" get upset that they were told to "Suck it up and get back to work, sailor!" when everybody else was being worked like a dog?
