NORFOLK, Va. - The Navy's top Admiral is talked to Sailors and Department of Defense civilian employees at Naval Station Norfolk Wednesday.

Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Admiral John Richardson and Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy (MCPON) hosted an All Hands Call.

The event gave Sailors and civilians the opportunity to hear from top Navy leadership and ask questions about important fleet-wide issues.

Many of the questions Wednesday focused on the recent missile strikes in Syria carried out by Navy warships earlier this month.

Many Sailors asked what role they might be asked to play if tensions and activity escalates.

Admiral Richardson told Sailors every decision he makes starts with them in mind.
