BREMERTON,
Wash. – USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) recently announced Yeoman 1st Class Petty Officer Noelia Perez,
from Houston, as the ship’s Senior Sailor of the Year.
Perez was chosen through a demanding screening process that
looked at each Sailor’s involvement in the command during the last fiscal year
as well as an oral board that tested Sailors’ knowledge on rules and
regulations.
“The board process was intimidating,” said
Perez. “Before the board it was a happy crowd. We hugged and congratulated each
other and wished each other good luck. I thought I didn’t do so well but was
still happy for the experience. I honestly felt anyone who was selected would
be a good representation of John C. Stennis.”
John C. Stennis, homeported in Bremerton, Washington, is pierside
conducting routine training as it continues preparing for its next scheduled
deployment.
