Admiral Patrick M. Walsh, vice chief of naval operations, gives a speech at the commissioning ceremony for USS Trayer (BST21), the Navy's newest simulator in Great Lakes, Ill on June 18, 2007. Trayer, along with Battle Stations 21, is the culmination of all training received at the Navy's only boot camp. The simulator is a grueling 12-hour test of a recruit's skills in several shipboard evolutions, including fighting fires and stopping floods. The final evolution, now held entirely in the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer simulator, marks a recruit's final rite of passage into the Navy.
