angelawilkinsonnavy

GREAT LAKES, Ill. – United States Navy Sailor Angela J. Wilkinson completed US Navy basic training on Friday, Nov. 15, at the Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Ill.

During the eight-week program, Wilkinson completed a variety of training which included classroom study and practical instruction on naval customs, first aid, firefighting, water safety, shipboard and aircraft safety, and physical fitness.

The capstone event of boot camp is “BattleStations 21.” This exercise gives recruits the skills and confidence they need to succeed in the fleet.

“BattleStations 21” is designed to galvanize the basic warrior attributes of sacrifice, dedication, teamwork and endurance in each recruit through the practical application of basic Navy skills and the core values of “Honor, Courage and Commitments,” required to become a United States sailor.

Wilkinson is the daughter of Jenni Oberfeld of Potter Valley, Calif., and Mike Wilkinson of Lakeport, Calif. She's a 2011 graduate of Upper Lake High School, Upper Lake, Calif.
