Equipment Operator 2nd Class (EO2) Sanchez hands a bucket to Equipment Operator 1st Class (EO1) Heck as part of a bucket brigade formed alongside members of the Youth Employment in Parks during trail restoration efforts at Virgin Creek Falls Trail in Anchorage, Alaska.
A bucket brigade—where individuals line up to pass items hand-to-hand—was used to move gravel up the trail while minimizing physical strain and maximizing teamwork between Sailors and local youth.
Navy Week is a nationwide outreach program organized by the United States Navy to connect with communities that do not typically have a significant Navy presence. Held in cities across the country, Navy Week brings in Sailors from multiple commands to participate in public events, educational activities, and community service projects. The goal is to educate the public about the Navy’s mission, capabilities, and the critical role it plays in national defense and global maritime security. Through demonstrations, ship visits, school engagements, and media outreach, Navy Week fosters a greater understanding and appreciation of the Navy’s contributions while strengthening the bond between the Navy and the American people.
Naval Construction Group One (NCG 1) is homeported in Pt. Hueneme, California, and leads and manages the overall capability and readiness of its Naval Construction Regiments (NCRs), Naval Mobile Construction Battalions (NMCBs), Construction Battalion Maintenance Unit (CBMU), and Underwater Construction Team (UCT). NCG 1 provides the required engineering support that the Navy and Nation need to construct and maintain base facilities, repair battle-damaged facilities, conduct defensive operations as required, and to meet disaster preparedness and recovery missions.
