During the exercise, NWC faculty and staff members got to experience the current technologies and tactics currently deployed by U.S. Navy security forces to ensure the war college is best preparing warfighters for any conflict in maritime security. MSRON 8 is a multiservice deployable asset that provides centralized planning, control, coordination and integration of its Boat and Security Departments. MSRON 8’s missions include harbor and homeland defense, coastal surveillance and special missions. Established in 1884, NWC informs today’s decision-makers and educates tomorrow’s leaders by providing educational experiences and learning opportunities that develop their ability to anticipate and prepare strategically for the future, strengthen the foundations of peace, and create a decisive warfighting advantage.
