Please join us in celebrating ATCS Jeremy Watry on two incredible career milestones! ⚓️🇺🇸

Not only has Senior Chief Watery earned a well-deserved promotion to Senior Chief Petty Officer, but he also officially earned his Military Training Specialist (MTS)
Achieving both of these milestones takes relentless dedication, strong leadership, and an unwavering commitment to training the next generation of Sailors. Thank you for your leadership, hard work, and service to our country!

Today, the Sailors at CNATTU Norfolk gathered to honor and remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the brave service members who answered the call in the years that followed.

Through our 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony, we reflected on the enduring courage, sacrifice, and resilience of those we lost, along with the first responders and service members who answered the call. Their legacy continues to guide and inspire our mission every single day.
