NORFOLK, Va. (AP) -- The Navy soon will begin giving Breathalyzer tests to many of its sailors before they report to work aboard a ship under a new program that eventually will spread to the Marine Corps as well.
Navy Secretary Ray Mabus announced the plan Monday during a rare "all hands" call from aboard the amphibious USS Bataan at Naval Station Norfolk.
Mabus' comments were broadcast to sailors and Marines worldwide, who were able to submit questions to him via each service's Facebook page. Not one sailor or Marine asked Mabus about the Breathalyzer tests, which are already in use aboard submarines in the Pacific Northwest.
