Synopsis
San Diego's Naval Training Center (NTC) was commissioned on June 1, 1923, and for 70 years served as a young recruit's introduction to a naval career, beginning with nine weeks of basic orientation and organization training (BOOT) camp. Originally consisting of 135 acres adjacent to San Diego Bay, NTC eventually expanded to almost 550 acres with 300 buildings, landscaped promenades, parade grounds, and a concrete training "non-ship," the USS Recruit (a.k.a. USS Neversail), where recruits learned their first duties of seamanship. Advanced training schools were later added for military personnel learning specialized duties. After training hundreds of thousands of recruits, NTC was officially closed on April 30, 1997, and has since been transformed into San Diego's new and vibrant cultural center, Liberty Station., San Diego s Naval Training Center (NTC) was commissioned on June 1, 1923, and for 70 years served as a young recruit s introduction to a naval career, beginning with nine weeks of basic orientation and organization training (BOOT) camp.

    • If you went through boot in "Dego" a must read!

      I will never forget my experience at the Naval Training center in San Diego. This wonderfull text took me down memory lane. It not only covered all of the command structure and expantions the base endured over it's seventy year history,but there is also many excellent photos of the base and schools....I was delighted to find such a positive and accurate book about the base. If you went to boot camp in "dego" as it's known to sailors, you owe it to yourself to read this book. *****
