STENNIS SPACE CENTER, Miss. — Naval Small Craft Instruction and Technical Training School (NAVSCIATTS) Command Master Chief Jonas Marnick thanks his family for their unwavering support during his 25 years of service to the U.S. Navy.

Marnick was recently honored in a formal retirement ceremony after a dedicated career as a U.S. Naval Special Warfare (NSW) combatant-craft crewman operator (SWCC).

During Marnick’s three-year assignment to NAVSCIATTS, the senior enlisted leader played a pivotal role in supporting the training and mentoring of foreign security force professionals from all over the world. His commitment to excellence ensured that almost 900 international students from 81 countries left the school fully equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to provide support to the full spectrum of operations in global maritime environments.
