Sea Year Program is Reinstated at USMMA

摘要

SECRETARY OF TRANSPORTATION Elaine Chao is a woman of her word. During her confirmation hearings, Chao told Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS) that sorting out problems at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA), Kings Point, NY, would be her first priority at MARAD. Just two weeks after Chao's swearing in ceremony, USMMA announced that Sea Year training for USMMA Midshipmen would resume on three commercial carriers-Crowley Maritime, Maersk Line Limited, and American Presidents Line (APL)-beginning March 2017.
