By participating in the NCC Precision Manufacturing Bootcamp and working at Granite State Manufacturing, I believe that my work aligns with the mission of the U.S. Navy and national defense. In my first few weeks at GSM, I've already seen how my contributions support this important mission. My role in manufacturing is as vital as that of the submariners aboard the submarines we help construct. Both positions are crucial in ensuring our nation's security, underscoring the significant impact we each have in protecting our country.
