I find all of this to be very strange as I thought the Naval Hospital in
San Diego had just received Baby Friendly recognition...

I've worked in a military setting on and off since 1988.  Some of the
others on the list that work in military settings may have some additional
recommendations.  My suggestion would be to write a formal letter to the
patient representative, the director of the prenatal program and the
hospital commander.  Did I miss anyone? Be sure each knows the other
received the same letter.  Then, if they do not contact you, follow up with
phone calls to each.
