- Stennis Lab Sets Standard in Calibration
- USS JOHN C. STENNIS, At Sea (NNS) -- Stennis' meteorology and calibration laboratory (cal lab) has earned the highest rating in the carrier fleet for the past three and a half years.
The lab has won six consecutive awards for excellence by having less than two percent of items not calibrated and continues to be the top cal lab in the carrier fleet. - What a Care Package!
- One fireman's 200-pound care package from home brought joy and sour faces to many of her shipmates aboard USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74).
Damage Controlman Fireman Kyleigh Newton received four 50-pound boxes of individually wrapped pickles from her hometown as a show of support from the homefront.
Newton started a ritual where she saved one pickle for herself and gave the other to a shipmate.
Thousands of miles away in Moline, Ill., Newton's grandmother, Lynn Kallenbach, a surgical technologist at Trinity Medical Center in Moline, put a plan in motion to raise money to send pickles to the Sailors.
Crew size of the Stennis: 5,000 (including air wing)

- As you know, Jacksonville and Mayport are big naval centers -- I've always been impressed with the pilots that land their planes on those aircraft carriers! I hope they are equally handy around the house. ;)
