Top Gun Instructor Exposes Pilot Retention Crisis

In a recently published essay in PROCEEDINGS magazine, the Naval Institute's signature periodical, Lieutenant Commander Brian Hall, a Top Gun instructor, explains how the Super Hornet community is hemorrhaging experienced mid-career carrier pilots and how U.S. Navy leadership is attempting to mitigate the impact in a way that will ultimately hurt the Pentagon's ability to fight wars in the future. Mooch is rejoined by USAF Lt. Col. John "Rain" Waters for an in-depth discussion of the topic, arguably the most pressing issue facing the U.S. military today.
