In a recent speech, Assistant Secretary Roosevelt stated that it was necessary to strip many of the Navy’s ships in order to equip the fleet that sailed around the world. Theodore Roosevelt remembers the situation differently and contacted a naval officer of high standing about the matter. The officer denied that other ships needed to be stripped to prepare the fleet. However, when the fleet returned, many ships were depleted so that reserve ships could attend the review.
