"There were definitely ... individuals who didn't want me in a particular position," she said in an interview with Ebony. "And the issue either revolved around my gender or my race." She persevered, however, and came to realize, after discussions with female friends in civilian life, that her opportunities for advancement and fair compensation were better in the Navy than they were on the outside.Answershttp://www.answers.com/topic/michelle-howard#ixzz3EjrmOZEWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758747359382999584.post-58630000926192036942014-09-29T16:24:49.013-04:002014-09-29T16:24:49.013-04:00Some are familiar with reports on the death of a s...Some are familiar with reports on the death of a sailor aboard the USS Flint on October 7, 1993 in Oakland, California. The sailor was killed by riding in an elevator not meant for passengers.<br /><br />To point to First LT Howard as the cause is fruitless. She may bear some responsibility and I am sure she holds some residual guilt over the death but the CO was ultimately responsible, as was the sailor.<br /><br />You can't independently find her at fault. There was an appropriate JAGMAN inquiry and she was not found to be responsible. You can FOIA the report if you feel differently and read it for yourself.
