Lisa Franchetti<\/a> sent a message to the fleet last week urging everyone to stay the course, even if there is technically a gapped billet at the very top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along with the presumptive next leaders of the Army and Marine Corps, Franchetti has yet to formally become the Navy\u2019s top officer due to a blanket hold on fast-tracked senior military nominations and promotions by Sen. Tommy Tuberville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Alabama Republican began the blockade in March over his objections to the Defense Department\u2019s abortion policy. Under the policy announced last fall, service leaders can provide time off and travel stipends for troops to travel across state lines to seek out abortion services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The impasse has shown no signs of clearing up, but in her Aug. 14 message to the fleet, Franchetti urged sailors to carry on as usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She technically remains the vice chief of naval operations until formally confirmed by the Senate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe work of our Navy continues undisrupted and unabated,\u201d Franchetti wrote in the naval administrative message. \u201cDuring this leadership transition, our core identity as Sailors remains unchanged. We are forged by the sea and connected to each other through our core values of honor, courage, and commitment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/pentagon-congress\/2023\/08\/14\/army-navy-and-marines-all-without-top-leaders-due-to-tuberville-holds\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_8805.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Army, Navy and Marines all without top leaders due to Tuberville holds<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Chief of Naval Operations Adm.
