Navy Ensign Matt Kiernan completes Naval program

Navy Ensign Matt C. Kiernan, son of John J. Kiernan of Babylon, recently completed the four-year officer development program at the U. S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.

Kiernan learned basic skills in seamanship, navigation, infantry drill, marksmanship and sailing. Throughout four years at the Naval Academy, he studied courses in engineering, science, mathematics, humanities and social science while undergoing extensive training in leadership, discipline, athletics and character development. Kiernan also fulfilled the community relations requirements.

All Naval Academy graduates receive a bachelor of science degree upon completion of their four-year training. The Naval Academy's mission is to develop Midshipmen morally, mentally, and physically to produce combat leaders of character to the Navy and Marine Corps.

Kiernan is a 2005 graduate of Babylon High School.
