Sub school wants millennial recruits to feel more at home

“At the sub school, many of the students are enlisted sailors who arrive in their late teens and early 20s. Jarrett said many come from backgrounds with strong family support, and when they arrive in Groton, there's a sense ‘of “where's my Navy mom and dad?”’

"’That's where we as a submarine force are struggling a bit,’ said Jarrett, who added that some junior officers have had a hard time adjusting to Navy ways.”
