Today marked the final day of the current rotation. Alpha is looking forward to three days of utility, while Bravo will take on two days of maintenance. Charlie is preparing for their first training exam, and Delta will assume the watch at midnight. Those on deck watch and maintenance are sporting tans and sunburns while the remainder of the students and ship’s crew battle the humidity in the engine room.
