Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training

It was our pleasure to host Rear Adm. Doug Verissimo, commander, Naval Air Force Atlantic and Force Master Chief Jimmy W. Hailey III at the Naval Air Technical Training Center Oct. 31.

Verissimo and Hailey III shared some sea stories and career experiences with students and staff. Both leaders also expressed the importance of each Sailor's and Marine's career progression, and to keep working hard to achieve their goals.

Verissimo even shared some decent "dad jokes" to break the ice with the students and staff he met.
