in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

During peacetime, the President decides how many Navy ships stay active. Any ships not needed can be held in reserve. This gives the President flexibility to size the fleet.

During times of peace, the President controls how many Navy vessels stay in active service. The President keeps active only the ships that are actually needed at the time. Any remaining vessels that aren't needed for active duty are kept in reserve instead of being active.
