My USNA Service Assignment Is...?!

  • The Naval Academy Service Assignment Experience was surreal! This single day serves as the day when seniors at the US Naval Academy find out what job they will be doing for the duration of their Naval career. Will we be serving for 5 years or 10 years? Will we be going marine corp or surface warfare? Will we be in the oceans or in the sky? All of these questions are answered in a single day within a single moment. I am so blessed and thankful to JESUS for ever single one of my achievements and absolutely nothing without His provisions. Go Navy Beat Army!
    If you didn't know, my name is Justin Chu and I am currently a senior studying Robotics and Control Engineering at the US Naval Academy. I currently play club water Polo at USNA and am looking into making new vlogs about my journey in college.

    Man I’m happy for you! I remember watching your videos a couple years ago for the first time, about being a freshman at the USNA. Now you’re about to graduate and start leading your sailors! It’s not easy you’ll see and live through a lot of difficult situations. It’s important to stay focused on God and pray for guidance. I’ve seen a lot of things in my few years of service, but will always cherish the privilege and blessings that it has been. I pray that it will be a blessing for you and you’ll enjoy the privilege of serving (even when it doesn’t feel like a privilege)! God bless you and may he guide you on this journey.
