ATLANTA (Nov. 5, 2019) – Commander, Naval Service Training Command (NSTC), Rear Adm. Jamie Sands, speaks with Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC) midshipmen at the Morehouse University NROTC unit, part of the Atlanta NROTC Consortium during a site visit. The Atlanta Consortium is comprised of Morehouse university NROTC and Georgia Institute of Technology NROTC programs and their cross-town affiliates. Sands, along with NSTC Command Master Chief, Master Chief Petty Officer Jimmy Hailey III, spoke to the midshipmen about leadership, changes to the NROTC program to improve training and the need for warfighters ready to lead the Navy and Marine Corps into the future. NROTC units report to NSTC, and visits such as this provide professional development for midshipmen and allow Sands and Hailey to speak directly with midshipmen, staff, and university leaders.
