Camp Wood native reenlists after completing course at Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training

MILLINGTON, Tenn. – Petty Officer 3rd Class Aquileo Evans, a native of Camp Wood, Texas, reenlisted after completing aerographer's mate C-school course at Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training Unit Keesler on Keesler Air Force Base in Mississippi.
The course is nine months long and once completed the sailors qualify as Navy meteorologist and oceanographers.
Evans joined the Navy four years ago. Today, Evans serves as an aerographer's mate.
“I joined the Navy to get a better education,” said Evans.
Growing up in Camp Wood, Evans attended Nueces Canyon High School and graduated in 2016. Today, Evans relies upon skills and values similar to those found in Camp Wood to succeed in the military.
"A lesson I learned growing up was to respect everyone," said Evans.
These lessons have helped Evans while serving with the Navy.
The Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command direct and oversees more than 2,500 globally distributed military and civilian personnel who collect, process and exploit environmental information to assist Fleet and Joint Commanders in all warfare areas to make better decisions faster than the adversary.
Whether operating in the air, at sea or underwater, Navy equipment, people and decision-making all rely on the technical and tactical advice of Navy Meteorology and Oceanography (METOC) members.
Naval Oceanography encompasses a wide range of missions crucial to supporting today's Naval fleet. They include oceanography, hydrography, meteorology, climate science, geospatial information science, astrometry, Earth orientation and precise time.
As a member of the Navy, Evans is part of a world-class organization focused on maintaining maritime dominance, strengthening partnerships, increasing competitive warfighting capabilities and sustaining combat-ready forces in support of the National Defense Strategy.
“The Navy contributes to national defense by keeping world peace,” said Evans.
Evans and the sailors they serve with have many opportunities to achieve accomplishments during their military service.
“I am most proud is when I’m able to help someone,” said Evans.
As Evans and other sailors continue to train and perform missions, they take pride in serving their country in the United States Navy.
"Serving in the Navy to me means doing what you are needed for," added Evans.
