Summary: The Maritime Administration, known as MARAD, doesn't always get the most publicity. But it has a variety of missions in support of economic development, training of merchant marines, and military readiness. MARAD director Admiral Mark Buzby spoke with Federal Drive with Tom Temin about his hopes for a new ship next year and more at the 2019 Sea-Air-Space conference.
