Hello readers and welcome
to another edition of Around
Town.
Serving in the U.S. Navy
A sailor form the Bronx is
serving aboard a fl oating airport
at sea. Airman Anthony
Torres is an aviation boatswain’s
mate aboard a carrier
operating out of San Diego,
California.
Torres is a 2011 Urban Assembly
School for Careers
and Sports graduate serving
aboard the aircraft carrier
USS Theodore Roosevelt.
He is responsible for crash
and salvage, and rescue and
safety of the pilots and personnel
aboard any aircraft on the
fl ight deck.
Torres credits success in
the U.S. Navy to many of the
lessons learned growing up in
our borough.
I learned to treat everyone
with the same loyalty and respect
because it comes back ten
fold, said Torres.
The carrier is longer than
three football fi elds, measuring
nearly 1,100 feet. The ship,
a true fl oating city, weighs
more than 100,000 tons and
has a fl ight deck that is 252
feet wide.
Torres is especially proud
of earning the Air Warfare
Specialist qualifi cation.
Earning my qualifi cation
meant that I went above and
beyond the average norm. A lot
of people take it for granted and
won’t study and go through
that hard work to earn it.
