Quietly, around the 15th of March, 2021, the crew aboard the amphibious assault ship USS Essex-LHD 2 placed shiny black rings on their fingers. The rings came from the Naval Health Research Center (NHRC), which claimed they were part of a new way to keep people healthy.

It’s part of a U.S. Navy (USN) study called Crew Readiness, Endurance, and Watchstanding (CREW). The official reason for the CREW ring is so leadership can monitor essential personnel who are not getting enough sleep: “We want CREW to be a decision support tool so that you can understand how fatigued people are and how much sleep they are or are not getting. We can then determine how those fatigue levels correspond with the health of the individual so that we can provide a way or course of action to offset some of the risks that come with fatigue and poor health.”-Doctor Rachel Markwald, NHRC

The crew of the USS Essex are the first to take part in the study. Supposedly, the rings can also detect when a person’s performance is down due to being infected, it is hoped the rings might be able to detect infection before a person realizes they are sick. The CREW monitoring system can also be used in bracelets. Doctor Markwald claims she’s already getting good feedback from crewmembers.
According to a recent U.S. Naval Institute report, the ‘sleep’ monitoring program is an effort to prevent major fatal accidents. From my personal experience in the military, why don’t the higher-ups just admit they push their personnel too hard.
