Words from the Staff<br />

“The Navy and Marine Corps will present you with numerous<br />

challenges. Meet each challenge with an outstanding attitude and<br />

give it your best effort. But be sure, in the midst of every challenge,<br />

to remember to be a leader to those around you and why you choose<br />

to serve. Fair winds and following seas.” -LT Radtke, USN<br />

“’The Naval Officer is truly unique for he must have the capacity to<br />

simultaneously love his country... his service... his family... his<br />

shipmates... and the sea. He needs each of them unquestionably as<br />

each of them needs him... and the demands which are placed on him<br />

never diminish, they only grow.’ - VADM John Bulkeley (WWII Medal of<br />

"‘The Nation that makes a great distinction between its scholars and<br />

its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting<br />

done by fools.’ -Thucydides, Greek historian<br />

Challenge yourselves daily! Never cease setting, striving for, and<br />

achieving, your personal and professional goals. Your level of tactical,<br />

and in some cases technical, proficiency will keep your Marines and<br />

Sailors combat ready and earn you the respect that rank alone<br />

cannot achieve. “ -Capt McGee, USMC<br />

“Run faster and scream louder; No one cares as much as YOU do; If<br />

you always do what you have always done, you will always get what<br />

you have always got.” -GySgt Sharp, USMC
