The Navy's more than 7,000 culinary specialists (CS), deployed around the globe, feed on average more than 92 million wholesome and nutritious meals per year, ensuring the Navy's fighting forces operate at peak performance and are ready to respond to threats worldwide. Navy commanding officers agree that nothing impacts Sailors on a day-to-day basis more than the food CSs prepare for them; they believe these top quality meals contribute directly to Sailor quality of life and morale. Today's CSs have greater culinary instruction than ever before. With even more advanced training on the way, Sailors, both afloat and ashore, can look forward to even healthier and better-tasting meals in the future...

How cool it would be to attend one of these.
LOL how I wish Jim!
Did you get to attend this competition Gary? You seem to enjoy eating like I do so I wouldn't be surprised to know you were there!
Sailors from Naval Base San Diego competed in an Armed Forces Joint Culinary Training Competition. The Navy team finished 2nd overall in the competition! Sailors also took a silver, two bronze and honorable mention for the individual competition. CS1 Lucille M. Conley even made the front page of the Fort Lee (Va.) Traveller newspaper.
Congratulations to the culinary team!
CS2 Sylvester Jones received the opportunity of a lifetime when he was selected to be a part of the Naval Service Culinary Arts Team during the Joint Catering Competition, which was held in London, England from 13-15 Oct 15. Jones, along with his nine teammates, encompassed the U.S. Navy team and went head-to-head in the culinary competition with their counterparts from the Royal Navy, British Army, and the Royal Air Force at the Defense Staff College of the United Kingdom. For the U.S. Navy team, Jones was the “Jack of the Dust,” which is the person responsible with getting all of the food necessary for each individual to practice and use during each session. Jones also competed in the Hot Sweet Category where we had 30 minutes to prepare a hot dessert. He prepared an American lava cake with a berry medley compote served with mascarpone ice-cream. The dessert was tasty enough for him to win a bronze medal in the competition.
