More than 250 Naval ROTC midshipmen at 70 colleges and universities around the country recently chose their first ships. Midshipmen are ranked according to their grade point average, aptitude scores, and physical fitness assessments. Many selecting midshipmen made their picks via Google Hangout with staff from the Junior Officers Detailing branch at Navy Personnel Command in Millington, Tennessee. The video chat was broadcasted live on the PERS-41 YouTube page. Following commissioning and graduation, from May to July, all the newly commissioned SWOs will be on their way to their first shipboard assignments as Navy Ensigns.
