CAVASSHIPS Podcast [Jul 17, ’26] Ep: 250 TOTE Named LSM VCM & Good Bye to the Mighty COD

Welcome to the CavasShips Podcast with Christopher P. Cavas and Chris Servello…a weekly podcast looking at naval and maritime events and issues of the day – in the US, across the seas and around the world. This week…this week the Navy announced that Tote Services will serve as vessel construction manager for its new class of medium landing ships, joining us to discuss what this means is Tote Vice President Jeff Vogel. And in a bonus segment we celebrate the Navy’s venerable C-2 Greyhound as the aircraft and remaining squadron VRC-40 are sundowned later this month. Helping us commemorate the mighty COD is retired Navy Captain Herb Carmen.  Please send us feedback by DM’ing @CavasShips or @CSSProvision or you can email [email protected] or [email protected].
