She will report to Norfolk, Virginia, to begin training in the Surface Warfare commu- nity later this month.
CHRISTINA
This week’s Spotlight feature is Christina, and she doesn’t need much of an introduction, because her photos say it all. Christina said be- cause of her energy and motivation, she’s bound and determined to work hard and make the sacrifices necessary to be successful. We’re sure we’ll be seeing more of Christina in the fu- ture. Congratulations to Christina as this week’s Spotlight.
