Just wanted to give a nod to one of my star students from the spring semester, who does public affairs for the Navy and just returned from helping to set up the public affairs portion of a hospital ship’s trip to Southeast Asia. She even got her ship’s captain blogging:
“It has been a busy time here aboard Mercy. Our scheduled four day stop in Pearl Harbor was cut to a two day stop in order to get us headed west sooner. Iím sure that many of you are asking the question, ìWith what has happened in Myanmar, will USNS Mercy be going to help?î As of right now, I have to say, ìI just donít know.î With this early departure from Hawaii, the powers-that-be are certainly positioning us to do that ñ provided, of course, the government of Myanmar would let us in. Too many unknowns at this time to know what the outcome might be.”
I’m really proud of Rosie and how much she’s internalized and evangelized the stuff that we learned this spring. Go Navy!
