FREDERICKSBURG, Texas – (March 29, 2018) Gavin Mudd, a freshman attending Fredericksburg High School, participated in the pull-up challenge as part of the Navy’s Virtual Reality Experience, the “Nimitz”. The experience also consisted of students going through a series of exercises, starting with a briefing, before participating in a virtual high-speed water extraction of a Navy SEAL team pinned down under enemy fire. After its activation during the Wings over South Texas Blue Angels Air Show at Naval Air Station Kingsville, March 24 - 25, the Nimitz was available to come to Fredericksburg High School before transiting north to support Waco Navy Week, April 2 - 8. The Nimitz is named after Fleet Adm. Chester Nimitz, a native of Fredericksburg, who commanded the U.S. Pacific Fleet during WWII.
