Northview Grad Moretz Assigned To Sea Duty On USS Kearsarge
March 23, 2014
Machinist Mate Fireman Jonathan A. Moretz, a 2013 Northview graduate and former NJROTC cadet, is headed to his first sea duty assignment onboard USS Kearsarge (LHD-3) home ported in Norfolk, VA. Aboard Kearsarge, he will be assigned to the ship’s main propulsion division.
MMFN Moretz graduated from basic training at the Navy’s Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, IL, on October 4, 2013. He then attended Basic Engineering Common Core and Machinist Mate Strand training at Naval Station Great Lakes, where he graduated second in his class on March 12, 2014.
At Northview, MMFN Moretz was the cadet commander for the school’s NJROTC program during his senior year. Having successfully completed four years of NJROTC, newly enlisted sailors, like Moretz, are advanced to E-3 upon completion of basic training. Advanced pay grade awards former cadets for their NJROTC experience, which places them 18 months ahead of their peers in advancement progression.
He is the son of James and Lisa Moretz of McDavid.
