On January 27, the U.S. Navy joined Akins for a special demonstration that showcased multiple different activities relating to the Navy.
Junior Esai Hernandez said it was fun to see the technology the Navy has and the difference between the technology the military and the Navy have.
“It was very fun to see the technologies that they have to offer and how advanced our Navy is,” he said. “It was really neat to see the difference between standard technology and the technology that the military has.”
Hernandez said that the Navy had so much to offer and had many technology aspects to show.
“They showed us that if you have an interest in technology, if you have an interest in drones, or if you have interest in other things,” he said. “They have so many opportunities there for you. And it was almost eye-opening to see how much you could take on when you joined the Navy.”
The Navy recruitment visited to show the students the various scholarship programs and assistance they have to offer.
At the event, the activities included Humanitarian Missions, Naval Aviation Experiences, the Navy Dive Test, Career Selector, Submarine Navigation, and the SEAL Workout Challenge.
