| 0:00.0 | Well, this is big and unexpected, kind of inside the beltway, but kind of not. |
| 0:23.2 | That is John Fallon, the Secretary of the Navy, who has just been fired by the Secretary of War. |
| 0:30.7 | Phelan, the Secnav, is out. |
| 0:33.1 | Now, what is the Secretary of the Navy? |

| 1:30.8 | Take it full if you don't mind. |
| 1:32.0 | I think he had a background in finance. |
