Naval Station Everett

1. IMPACT OF CONTINUING RESOLUTION (CR) ACT ON PERMANENT CHANGE OF STATION (PCS) ORDERS. The Navy announced mid-December that Sailors should expect to receive their PCS orders with an approximate two months lead-time prior to execution of their move. This change follows the passage of a second CR that will fund the government through April 2017. While the Navy makes every effort to ensure that PCS orders are released in a timely manner, fiscal challenges result in compressed PCS timelines for Sailors. The Navy has utilized a prioritization strategy in previous PCS funding-constrained periods with the intent to minimize impact to Fleet readiness, career timing, and families. Emphasis will remain on global support assignment rotations,…

As Everett notes, “the most striking thing I remember about seeing the Pirahas for the first time was how happy everybody seemed” (Everett 6). The Piraha eternal happiness and warmth speak to their laidback culture and lifestyle. The Piraha take life lightly, and are able to brush off adversity. Everett notices this on seeing them in their day to day life, Everett states, “Pirahas laugh at their own misfortune: when someone’s hut blows over in a rainstorm…they laugh when they catch a lot of…

The British navy, what was first thought to be a second line of defense during the Elizabethan era, after the 1640s, it was realistic to think of it as first line of defense. As Britain rise as a powerful navy, allowing England to flourish as a country as a whole, the question behind Britain’s motivation arises: What was the motivation behind Britain’s naval mastery during the seventeenth and eighteenth century?

Since the first galleys sailed the Mediterranean Sea, the world has seen a continuous evolution in respect to naval innovation. The addition of the steam engine to naval warships changed how ships not only operated but also revolutionized how ships were designed. Ship armor could now be thicker and heavier due to the propulsion that a steam powered engine allowed. Guns were also allowed to grow in size with the increased mobility of naval warships and the need to penetrate thicker armor.…

During my senior year of high school, I participated in an Office of Naval Research sponsored competition called SeaPerch. SeaPerch pits teams of students against each other to create a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) and complete a series of underwater challenges.

Countless hours were spent devising new ideas, testing them, and watching…
