Chris Nicholson, Joe Veloz, and Nathan Gustafson. All freaks of nature, all extremely talented in their respective fields.

Big boy Chris. He can bicep curl you; there is not a day that you don’t see Chris putting that work in at the gym. He will often go up to you and growl at you because he is so in the zone. Anyways, Chris is not only talented and hardworking, he never fails to check up on the people around him.

JOE VELOZ EVERYBODY! The joe veloz is not only stronger than Chris Nicholson, he is ALSO on ultimate frisbee. One of his teammates says , “he’s really good at handles (passes). He’s one of the main playmakers of the team. He’s also really good at defense”. He dabbles in aerospace engineering and often will bully his squad members during meals. But really, you know his bullying comes from love deep down. Squad 3-3 would absolutely not be the same without joe 🙂

LAST BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST IS NATHAN GUSTAFSON. Gus is on the lightweight rowing team and is not only a physical specimen himself, he is the physical mission sergeant of 27th company. He is mentally and physically hardened like the materials he studied in his mech e majors classes. He is hard at work at making sure that the plebes become mentally and physically strong. GUS keeps people around him accountable and makes sure to push those around him to be better.

Thank you gus, joe, and Chris for making all of our lives here in 27 better 🥺🤍

27 signed 2 for 7 !!! 🐥

This past weekend the class of 2024 took their next steps and signed a contract dedicating their lives to another two years at the United States Naval Academy and five years after graduation to the Navy or Marine Corps. A 1987 graduate said “Today you [all] made a commitment to join a fraternity of very special Americans who believe in something that is at the heart of what makes this country great”. Congratulations to the class of 2024 and good luck in classes :)!!!

Earlier this week, one of our very own ducks was named 6th Battalion’s mid of the month!!! Hooyah !!!! What her classmates have said about her reveals her hard work and dedication to our Company.

“Melissa Linsdell is the first person I think of when I'm asked to name someone who goes "above and beyond" what is asked of them. Melissa is 27th company's ops sergeant where she helps plan morale boosting events for our company. Her organizational skills help her perform well in this billet, which in turn benefits our company as a whole. Most recently, she has been helping plan a company talent show.
In her role as a peer advisor, she is a kind and welcoming soul who without a doubt knows how to be there for her friends. As someone who is usually doing the checking in on, it is nice to have someone who does the same. Melissa never fails to send a resource reminder email during every exam week, comes up with ideas to bring the company together, welcomes feedback, and genuinely cares about those around her.
In addition to being ops sergeant and a peer advisor, Melissa is also a Brigade investigating officer. This is just another way she dedicates herself and her time to this institution and its values. Melissa is an integral part of our company, it is a pleasure to work alongside her.”

Way to represent 27th Company!! Congratulation on earning this recognizing!! HOOYAH

Capt Trainer began his career as an Officer in the 9th Communications Battalion, Engineering Platoon, in Operation Iraqi Freedom 2, 5-7, 8. Then he was with the 2nd Tank Battalion. Next, he was with the 3rd Battalion 8th Marines Combined Arms Company, Black Sea Rotational Force 15.2. After these assignments, Capt Trainer became the 27th Company Officer for which he helped raise the great class of ‘22. During his time as a CO, Capt Trainer was also the Jiu Jitsu O Rep. Currently, he is with MARFORCYBER Future Operations Planner.

Capt Trainer and his wife Amber have six children (three of the six are dogs). His hobbies include combat sports, teaching religious education, coaching youth sports, and DIY home improvements. (Do any Plebes think they can beat him in ground fighting?)
