I recently heard a lecture claiming that 90 percent of the scientists our planet has ever hosted are still working in science today. That is a remarkable number.

Identify an issue and work to resolve it. That kind of work ethic exemplifies one of the most recent Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal winners, Lt. Cmdr. Sam Hughes, who worked with TechSolutions, at the Office of Naval Research (ONR) Global, to create a new, more efficient way to train radar operators. Hughes came up with the idea to use a simulation program for training radar operators while working as the Air Traffic Control (ATC) Integrated Product Team (IPT) lead at the Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWC TSD). The new radar simulator trains up to 14 people at one time with a standardized training method. While Hughes’ name is written on the certificate from the DoN, he stressed it was a team effort that helped push the new radar operations training forward. “This is 100% not me. It was a team effort and as soon as we get it out to the fleet and it works, that'll be the greatest award I could receive.”

While giving his keynote address at the recent ExpoNaval 2022 in Valparaiso, Chile, Chief of Naval Research (CNR) Rear Adm. Lorin Selby focused on a simple yet important theme — increasing and strengthening collaboration with the Chilean navy and scientific community.
