    Chief petty officer (CPO) selectees, assigned to U.S. Naval War College, Naval Station Newport, and Naval Undersea Warfare Center in Newport, R.I., arrive onboard the South Dakota class battleship, USS Massachusetts (BB-59), in Fall River, Mass., to participate in a community relations (COMREL) project. The COMREL project served as an opportunity for CPO selectees to contribute towards the preservation and restoration of the battleship. The Massachusetts, affectionately nicknamed Big Mamie by her crew, currently sits moored pierside at Battleship Cove in Fall River, Mass. and serves as a museum ship for the Massachusetts Memorial Committee.
