    Rear Adm. James F. Caldwell Jr., commander of submarine force U.S. Pacific Fleet, tours a simulated bomb-damaged berthing compartment aboard the 210-foot-long Arleigh Burke-class destroyer simulator USS Trayer (BST 21) at Recruit Training Command. Caldwell toured the command's training facilities, talked with staff members and recruits and was the reviewing officer at the weekly Pass-in-Review graduation. Trayer is the platform where recruits take their final test, Battle Stations, before graduating from RTC. Battle Stations is a 12-hour exam of 17 different scenarios, including firefighting, damage control, watchstanding and mass casualty evacuations. Exactly 600 recruits officially became Sailors at the weekly graduation. RTC trains more than 35,000 sailors annually. (U.S. Navy photo by Scott A. Thornbloom)
