⚓️Summer Cruise: 3/c & 2/c⚓️
Over the summer our 3/c and 2/c MIDN completed CORTRAMID and Nurse Afloat Cruises!
During CORTRAMID, MIDN were introduced to life underway as a Naval or Marine officer. MIDN participated in a SWO, Aviation, Submarine and Marine week.
At Nurse Afloat Cruise, Nurse-Option MIDN experienced life underway as both an Officer and a Nurse. MIDN were able to practice skills in a clinical setting and learn about the medical side of the fleet.
On top of this, we wanted to give a special congratulations to SSgt Horrocks for receiving a NAM for his duties as a Plt. Sgt. at CORTRAMID West!
