 Naval Air Station Siginella Second Class Petty Officers Association teamed up with the Syracusa Rotary Club to beautify a local beach. Master of Arms Second Class Michelle Thomas, president of the Second Class Association, believes getting involved in the local community is good for intercultural relations. I feel like it's important because it establishes a good rapport with the local nation. They view us as these people who come and help them and, you know, we live here, we should contribute. The beach cleanup is just one of many ways the association gives back to the local community. And Thomas encourages all E5s to join the association and make a difference. Any E5 in any branch, retired, reserves, active duty, they can come out. We're just about helping the local community and kind of having fun while we're doing it.
