Maritime Academy, Norwich University.
- Graduated 4 Chief Petty Officers, 2 Petty Officer First Class, 2 Petty Officer Third Class. Highest graduating ranks in many years.
- Cadets getting ready for Summer Advanced, Recruit and NLO training.
- Facilities: Had meeting with Stamford WPCA (Water Pollution Control Authority) Administration Manager regarding security and the gate we use to enter and exit. WPCA seemed OK for us to continue procedures as normal and to make sure we lock the gate when we are done, which we have always done. While there, discovered that a new roof will be placed on our shared building. This will no effect on our operations and will happen during the summer when we are not drilling. But... they received a grant to remediate the building in the inside that will most definitely impact our operations but a welcome event that will hopefully make our spaces more habitable. Will have to investigate further to find out scope and when it will happen.
- Our "free" WiFi has gone "down". Talked with network operations and now it seems we have to pay for a license for a new router with the cheapest option being $400 for five years. Will investigate with WPCA to see if they were paying for us in the past. Internet access needs to conduct division business. More to follow but if unable to get anywhere we may need to purchase that license.
