VMI is slated to attend NSI Cycle 2. July 1-21. The unit has already begun collecting required forms to make travel arrangements. I'm sure they'll provide them to you in the very near future. Congrats to your son! My son will also be attending VMI with NROTC scholarship.

Please see today's post that guest participation is suspended at this time, as are large ceremonies including NSI (Great Lakes).

Effective immediately, the U.S. Navy is suspending all Recruit Training Command (RTC), in Great Lakes, IL, and Officer Training Command (OTC), in Newport RI, formal, large-scale graduation ceremonies until further notice as part of its proactive approach to protect our mission and limit the potential spread of COVID 19.

Recruits, Officer Candidates and students will continue to graduate, but the transition from Recruit or Officer Candidate to Sailor will be marked by small, internal events which cannot be live-streamed.
This decision was made after considering recommendations from CDC and medical professionals, to support the well-being of our students and staff, and to maintain our mission essential function of providing basically trained Sailors to the fleet.
While graduation is an important symbolic event for Sailors and their families, it is not essential for training, and in light of concerns in gathering large groups of individuals together, it would be inappropriate to continue the ceremony at this time. We will continue to closely monitor the situation, and will resume graduations and guest attendance as soon as it is safe to do so.
 
Thanks for posting. So is NSI suspended or just the graduation ceremony?
