IMAGE: DAHLGREN, Va. (July 12, 2019) – U.S. Naval Academy Midshipman Jonathon Copley and his mentor, Mike Burchik, a Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) scientist, are pictured in front of a U.S. Navy 16-inch battleship gun on the parade field near NSWCDD headquarters during Copley’s summer internship. While assigned to the Submarine Launched Ballistic Missile Program (SLBM), Copley worked with a team that supported developers who wrote code for the SLBM Fire Control System. “I was astonished to see how many people were on the base working hard to keep our Navy on the cutting edge while maintaining the technology gap with our adversaries,” said Copley. “They are working day in and day out to enhance the Navy's warfighting ability. It made me proud to know I will be joining a fighting force with such superb people behind it.” (U.S. Navy photo/Released)
