Naval Academy Surface Cruise PART 1

Follow me into an exclusive look into what we midshimen do during our Summers. Every year, midshimen are required to take part in spending time aboard a naval vessel or aircraft in various parts of the world. This year, I got to travel to Norfolk Naval Station and train aboard the USS Forrest Sherman.
If you didn't know, my name is Justin Chu and I am currently a sophomore studying Robotics and Control Engineering at the US Naval Academy. I currently play Division 1 Water Polo at USNA and am looking into making new vlogs about my journey in college.

The fleet is pretty amazing! Did two aircraft carriers and two deployments. Just got out two years ago and did 5 years. Enjoy your time! It goes by really quick

0:31 rip to that 💀

[@jeffswoyer9898]

Did you stay at a the Norfolk NB Inn? I visited Norfolk back in 2019 (Before COVID) for Veteran's Day. Nice visit (the Naval Base, USS Wisconsin, Virginia Beach for dinner, the MacArthur Memorial, Ft. Monroe, the Maritime Museum). I just returned from a visit to Vietnam, remember to visit local museums during your career. Sometimes answers your question, "Why am I here". Even here in Kansas City, we may have some museums to visit (the WW I museum, the Truman Library) and our biggest body of water is the Missouri River.

[@sabertoothgaming9962]

Yay a mother vid I love them

[@porterj4154]

Are you on a DDG Arleigh Burke class destroyer?

[@navalaviation]

Yes!

[@sushidog7323]

Did you have a good time at the Iron Rooster?

[@Ben..E]

JC, will you be doing PROTRAMID also, where you get to sample the different service selection options? If so, you have a very busy summer!

[@ericzeigler8669]

That PROTRAMID program is usually done between junior and senior years at Canoe U. I stand corrected if that's changed.

[@navalaviation]

PROTRAMID got cancelled for us this year due to COVID so this is just my fleet cruise

[@Ben..E]

@@navalaviation That's too bad. Even if you are locked in on your service selection, it's a pretty good and fun experience, or at least it was.

[@rmg.777]

First, I win, but also good vid 👍

[@c_qed2543]

Where should I message you about questions about USNA?

[@Damibhavin]

I’m back

[@KhanhTran-jd7bk]

I have a few questions I would like to ask you but I don’t know if it’s just me but I couldn’t find your Instagram.

[@navalaviation]

[@ericzeigler8669]

Rig it in until given carry-on. That room is a mess. Going on cruise and sheets still on the racks? Do mids still complete PQS booklets on summer cruise? PQS stood for Professional Qualification Standards. Without those tasks summer cruise is just a glorified vacation. Carry on! ('79 LCWB) Last Class With Balls.

I am from the future and you will take the path of the pilot not the sailor
