PENSACOLA, Fla. -- Naval Education and Training Command (NETC) announced its 2020 Military Instructors of the Year (MIOY) March 2 at a virtual ceremony from the command headquarters onboard Naval Air Station Pensacola.
Ten finalists for five MIOY categories serving throughout the MyNavy HR Force Development domain rose through a number of competitions to represent the top achievers in training from a group of more than 11,000 instructors.
The 2020 NETC MIOY are:
* JUNIOR ENLISTED – Operations Specialist 2nd Class Dominiqua Vance, Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Illinois
* MIDGRADE ENLISTED – Aircrewman Survival Equipmentman 1st Class Kenneth Heckman, Center for Security Forces Detachment North Island, San Diego, California
* SENIOR ENLISTED – Chief Aviation Boatswain’s Mate (Handling) Benjamin O’Dea, Center for Security Forces Detachment North Island, San Diego, California
* OFFICER – Lt. Alfonso Sciacchitano, Naval Submarine Training Center Pacific Detachment, Santa Rita, Guam
* NROTC – Lt. Carolee Dearman, University of Illinois NROTC, Champaign, Illinois
Rear Adm. Pete Garvin, NETC commander, congratulated all the finalists for their roles in shaping the Navy's future force and for their contributions to the training and education mission. Garvin awarded each MIOY with a Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal.
“The NETC bumper sticker is ‘Fleet Readiness Starts Here,’ never has this been more true,” said Garvin. “The military instructors recognized today exemplify the drive and passion of delivering the best trained Sailors to the Fleet, ready to fight and win on day one, against any adversary, anytime, anywhere.”
The NETC MIOY program recognizes Sailors throughout the domain who exhibit attributes, such as sustained superior performance, leadership, mentorship, knowledge and teaching of military history and heritage, self-improvement, command and community involvement, and exemplary military bearing.
“It is always a difficult challenge to select our five MIOY from a vast group of highly motivated and talented Sailors and Marines,” said NETC Force Master Chief Matthew Harris. “They all epitomize the honor, courage, and commitment of our professional military instructors throughout MyNavy HR Force Development.”
NETC recruits and trains those who serve our nation, taking them from “street to fleet” by transforming civilians into highly skilled, operational, and combat-ready warfighters, while providing the tools and opportunities for continuous learning and development.
