Institution that works on merit and knowledge. Anything based on those must become a leader . Also USarmy came to save 3 million lives in my home country of somalia during civil war in which large parts of country were cut off from food supply by warlord mohamed farah aideed. If US army didnt come save , he would have starved 3 million people who rejected mohamed farah aideed as president during civil war. Only if US army was not too lenient and installed government somalia would have stood on its feet long time ago and wud hve bewn great US ally

OP -(Mark) You ruined your statement with your last sentence, so unnecessary.

Even amongst soldiers she had a great reputation. Very few leaders realize the military is a “people business” as she stated. The ones who don’t come to this understanding and live it end up making out to be the commanders that she is thankfully not representative of. Looking forward to see how far she can take this. I think, ALL the way up.

Congratulations Capt. Days and thank you for your service!

Yes, I can tell she is an honest people person through and through. I can say this because I have spent time with at least five four stars in personal, professional, lengthy conversations with them. I understand leaders of her rank. In addition, I love her energy and enthusiasm for her troops...CONGRATS on the promotion General!

Another Female hero to add to my many. Congratulations Mrs Commander Janet on your Duty. Salute..

How powerful 👏🏾👏🏾 being first… “It means I am not the last.” 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 So powerful. I love that. I have never heard anyone say that in reference to being the first. I also appreciate Captain Days’ calm, confident demeanor and take on race and gender, mentorship, and leadership. Thank you for your service and stellar example of what it means to be powerful and humble. Truly inspiring.

So, Army veteran here. First off, GRATZ to Capt. Days. Navy Inc. ain't easy for a black woman to prosper in, so it says a lot about her that she made all 4 stripes. I live in an area with a lot of swabbie veterans and retirees and what they tell me is that base commander is a binary gig: you're either being screened for high flag rank or it's a doorknob assignment. I can't say what kind of officer Capt. Day is from a heavily edited 6 minute news segment, but what I have seen impresses me. I hope that she is as good as first impressions appear.

I’m so proud of you May God continue to bless you and your family always ❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾

As a former Navy Sailor I'm so proud right now!

Thank you for your service commander Days.

Such an amazing and courageous person. She represents our genders well ☺️. She's an inspiration for all women 🙂. Thanks for sharing this video cuz!

A true sister in arms and now you have the NAVY CROWN JEWEL, I know it is in good hands, salute Captain from a Navy/Army vet!

Thank you……So very inspiring and affirming for anyone!! One thing I love how she acknowledges the work and importance of “her team”. A team player will always be successful, that’s a quality that’s missing in many cases….. Great video….Thank you!!

"Our nation's children are our responsibility". Thank you! So very happy that there is a commanding officer that gets what should be basic.
