2024 Horizon Graduate Enoch Mawuli reported to Great Lakes basic training in August 2024. He successfully completed his training, offically became a 'sailor' and then graduated boot camp in late October 2024. As part of the process, he had to take swimming lessons 16 times before he passed.
Shortly afterwards, he attended his 'skills' school in Mississippi. As 2025 begins, he will be stationed at Naval Base Kitsap in Bremerton Washington by Seattle. He will be serving initially on the first nuclear aircraft carrier, the USS Nimitz CVN 68 (which is 50 years old!).
He will be serving as an Aviation Maintenance Administrationman (AZ)
The 'AZ' is considered to be 'a pilot’s best friend'. His enlistment is 4 years, and he might continue service but is currently unsure and just enjoying his experience. Enoch says he loves the Navy!
His brother, 2023 Horizon Graduate Elijah Mawuli, is also in the Navy.
Enoch's words of wisdom for everyone at Horizon is...
‘It’s a great way of broadening your perspective in life’
Finally, he gives a big shout out to these teachers at Horizon...Mr. Golding, Mr. Dien, Mr. McIntyre and Mr. Harmison.
Congrats to Enoch the sailor !!!
