MARAD announces new Merchant Marine Academy Superintendent

United States Merchant Marine Academy
The United States Maritime Administration recently announced that U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood named Read Admiral Philip H. Greene the new Superintendent of the Merchant Marine Academy in Kings Point, New York.

Amver has a strong tie with the Academy and its graduates.  We recognize the efforts of United States Flagged ships participating in the Amver program each year with an awards ceremony in Washington, D.C.

We wish Admiral Greene good luck in his new role!
