Overnight Defense: Former Navy secretary reportedly spent $2 4M on travel | Ex-Pentagon chief Miller to testify on Jan 6 Capitol attack | Austin to deliver West Point commencement speech

Where did he go?: Among Braithwaite’s trips was a $232,000 excursion in January to the South Pacific s Wake Island to record a farewell message to the Navy and Marine Corps. The island is essentially a refueling stop and emergency landing strip thousands of miles from Hawaii where no sailors or Marines are stationed, Navy spokesman Capt. Jereal Dorsey told the outlet. Braithwaite also flew to Norway, Italy, Greece, Japan and India, as well as several trips to Hawaii and a more than $24,000 flight to attend the Army-Navy football game with his family. Braithwaite’s response: Braithwaite defended his travels in a statement to USA Today, claiming they were necessary to strengthen the Navy after recent crises, likely alluding to the scandal surrounding the coronavirus outbreak aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier.
