We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express near the base.  Room was great, and they had a decent hot breakfast too.  Only drawback was they have an outdoor pool, and it was closed when we were there in November.

I have the same, conflicting information. Waiting to hear something definitive...

Power School Class 1206 Graduation:

I received an invitation from the CO of NNPTC that gives the graduation date as March 2, 2013 @ 9:00am.  My son says that is not correct and the date is March 8. Anyone else have any information on this?

I haven't heard anything specific. I believe my son is in that group, though.

Anyone know any particulars about the Power Schoool graduation on March 8?

PIR JAN, 25: new batch of sailors in S.C. now! Following my last comment 5 divisions got HOF honors this week at PIR, including our son's 076. Although winter gave us lots of snow & bone chilling temps up here at RTC, it was an honor & pleasure to witness this impressive graduation ceremony. A dad's proud salute to our son & his new nuke shipmates! And to our friends & family members currently serving in our Navy.

Oops! My mistake! My son said they are "UP" for Hall of Fame. They didn't win it yet, but said they've gotten great scores this week, & have a shot at it!

Gary,

Tried to upload a couple of videos to  my page, but Navy Dads does not seem to support MPEG2 or something else is wrong.  Leave a messsage separately and I'll try to get it to you by someother route.  One of the highlights is  as the Admiral said during his graduation speech of NNPTC Power School Class 1204 in November 2012,

unmistakebly the Navy has the best pilots, but pilots will want to line up and  debate you "who is the best pilot".  Wall street bankers will want to line up and debate you"who is the best investment banker".  But, when it comes to nuclear power no one, no one will debate that the Navy does nuclear power better than anyone.  As ayoung officer, the Admiral, one of the last to be  interviewed for his first nuclear command by Admiral Rickover who then told him:  "Don't have a reactor accident."  Nukes are therefore a very special group and have a very special responsibillity.
