MILLINGTON, Tenn. – Petty Officer 2nd Class Samir Georges, a native of Miami, Florida is serving aboard USS Gravely, a U.S. Navy warship, currently deployed in the Atlantic Ocean participating in the Carrier Strike Group Four Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX). COMPTUEX is an intense, multi-week exercise designed to fully integrate a carrier strike group as a cohesive, multi-mission fighting force and to test its ability to carry out sustained combat operations from the sea.
Georges, a 2016 Miami Killian High School graduate, joined the Navy five years ago.
“I joined the Navy to start a new path in my life and to start my independence as an adult,” said Georges. “The Navy has provided me with many opportunities to grow in different areas of my life.”
