WASHINGTON, D.C. – September is National Preparedness Month (NPM) and Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC) is observing this year’s theme, “Prepare to protect. Preparing for disasters is protecting everyone you love,” by offering educational webinars, informational resources and guidance to educate Navy families about disaster preparedness.

In recognition of National Fruits and Veggies Month in September, Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC)’s Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) Division has partnered with the Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) to promote healthy eating and good nutrition among Navy families.

Last year, Navy Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) hosted 22 worldwide live esports tournaments capturing over 4 million viewers.  More than 1,700 Sailors and MWR patrons from around the world participated and game titles included Rocket League, Madden NFL and Call of Duty.

An improbable venture was started in 1911 when the Navy, with the assistance of business, civic, and political leaders in the city of Chicago, established Naval Training Station Great Lakes, located 30 miles north of Chicago. What made this an improbable project was the fact that the “naval” training station was located thousands of miles from the Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, or the Gulf of Mexico.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Naval Support Activity (NSA) Bahrain is one of five recipients of the 2021 Commander in Chief’s Annual Award for Installation Excellence, which recognizes the outstanding and innovative efforts of the people who operate and maintain U.S. military installations.
