Since that time two hundred and eighty-two men have successfully completed the program and obtained their commissions as Ensigns in the U. S. Navy or as Second Lieutenants in the U. S. Marine Corps. Out of this number of graduates approximately thirty-five per cent have been accepted for flight training.The NROTC unit, under the direction of Captain David H. McCIintock, U. S. Navy, has as its mission the important task of training young men in essential naval subjects to qualify them as commissioned officers upon graduation. At this time they go on active duty with ships of the fleet, in submarines, to flight school, or to shore duty either here in the states or overseas. They assume positions of leadership and responsibility where-ever they go in their travels.Captain David H. McCIintock Professor of Naval Sciences306 |
