Following his remarks, Seth Cropsey, director of Hudson Institute's Center for American Seapower, will lead a discussion about his recently published book, <A HREF="https://www.amazon.com/Seablindness-Political-Neglect-American-Seapower-ebook/dp/B06Y3KJ3C6?SubscriptionId=AKIAJZSL7HJAOJO3M4AQ&tag=udsonnstitut-20&linkCode=sp1&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B06Y3KJ3C6" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Seablindness: How Political Neglect is Choking American Seapower and What to Do About It</A>.
