 The chief of naval operations joined service chiefs, flag officers and education professionals to speak at a military child education coalition discussion in support of our nation's youth. Mentorship and guidance were two words of advice for the 600 educators in the audience. Other advice came from the heart. But before I give any advice, I want to say thank you to educators, to professional military people and parents. But I think number one, you need to care. When you see that child that has great potential or needs a boost or needs some care, take care of that. Greenert said decreased education is becoming a matter of national security, which emphasizes the importance of organizations like MCEC to help ensure DOD students accomplish their academic goals.
