GREAT LAKES, Ill. (Aug. 1, 2023) – Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC) midshipmen candidates train handling ship mooring lines on the USS Marlinspike Seamanship Trainer at Recruit Training Command (RTC). The candidates are part of the New Student Indoctrination (NSI) Cycle 3. Upon completion of NSI, the candidates will start their freshman year of the NROTC program at colleges and universities nationwide this fall. NSI is an indoctrination program hosted at RTC, and provides midshipmen with a common military training orientation. NSI provides basic training in five warfighting fundamentals – firefighting, damage control, seamanship, watchstanding and small arms handling and marksmanship – to begin creating basically trained and smartly disciplined future Navy and Marine Corps officers. NROTC is overseen by Commander, Naval Service Training Command (NSTC), Capt. Craig Mattingly, which supports naval accessions training for 98 percent of the Navy’s new officers and enlisted Sailors.
