Midshipman 3rd Class Rico Jordan, a student at Savannah State University, acts as helmsman aboard the Los Angeles-class fast-attack submarine USS Newport News (SSN 750). As a part of the Career Orientation and Training for Midshipmen, Jordan and 21 other midshipmen experienced life deployed aboard the submarine. In addition to the overnight embark, midshipmen attended the Trident Training Facility onboard Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay in Kings Bay, Ga. There they will be able to gain experience in damage control, firefighting and navigation on a number of specialized simulators.
