Surface Combat Systems Training Command Great Lakes

Congratulations to the Navy’s newest Fire Controlmen on reaching this incredible milestone! After months of challenging training, dedication, and perseverance, these Sailors have officially taken the next step toward becoming some of the Fleet’s most highly skilled warfighters.

As Fire Controlmen, these Sailors will continue their follow-on training where they will further develop the technical expertise needed to operate, maintain, and troubleshoot advanced combat systems, radar systems, missile systems, and weapons control equipment used throughout the Fleet. Their knowledge and precision will play a critical role in ensuring our ships remain mission ready and capable of defending our nation across the globe.

When they arrive onboard their future commands, these Sailors will be trusted with maintaining the combat readiness of some of the Navy’s most advanced weapons systems, standing the watch, supporting operations at sea, and helping keep their shipmates safe during every mission.

Your hard work, long hours, and commitment to excellence have brought you to this moment, and the Fleet is gaining an outstanding group of future warfighters. Congratulations on your graduation, and best wishes as you begin your next adventure. Fair winds and following seas! ⚓🇺🇸
