SAN DIEGO (Sept. 29, 2022) – Sailors, and Marines, from the Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) visited Coronado High School (CHS) Navy Junior Reserves Officers Training Corps, Sept. 29.

“At Coronado High School, our JROTC cadets are ambitious, dedicated, and enthusiastic, said Rikki Betancourt, assistant principal of CHS. “We are honored and excited to host a visit from the ARG because it provides youth with opportunities to learn transferable skills from military leaders and forge positive partnerships with new role models.”

The visit included service members from amphibious assault ship USS Makin Island (LHD 8), amphibious transport docks USS Anchorage (LPD 23) and John P. Murtha (LPD 26), and provided an opportunity for sailors to discuss their diverse backstories, jobs, and experiences in the military, followed by a joint group physical training session.

“Fleet engagement is important to our program because it gives our cadets the opportunity to meet with professionals who can contextualize the curricular material and it makes the information more relatable by providing a human face to the concepts that we cover in class,” said William Nesbitt, retired Navy commander and Senior Naval Science Instructor for NJROTC. “For those who are evaluating military service for themselves, it can help shape their expectations of what that entails.

The Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group, comprised of Makin Island and amphibious transport docks USS Anchorage (LPD 23) and USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26), is homeported in San Diego.
