SAN DIEGO (Feb. 6, 2018) Lt. Andrew Blanco, sixth from left, a Surface Warfare Officer assigned to Naval Aviation Warfighting Development Center (NAWDC), poses for a photograph with fellow recipients of the Copernicus Award at an awards ceremony, Feb. 6, 2018. Blanco is dual-qualified as a Surface Warfare Tactics Instructor (WTI) and an E-2 Hawkeye Weapons and Tactics Instructor (WTI). His assignment at NAWDC is a readiness production tour that allows Surface WTIs to refine and develop their academic training after earning their patch through the Naval Surface and Mine Warfighting Development Center (SMWDC) in support of driving fleet lethality and tactical proficiency. SMWDC and NAWDC are two of the Navy's five Warfighting Development Centers. (U.S. Navy photo by MC1 Samuel Souvannason/Released)
