\u00a0The more than $24 million building renovation took seven years to complete due other NAVSTA Norfolk projects.\u00a0 In 2017, the installation and Manpower, Personnel, Training and Education made it their number one priority due to the poor condition of the historic building.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cWe have all put in a lot of blood, sweat, and tears to make this day a reality,\u201d explained SCSTC\u2019s Infrastructure Readiness Director, N4, Mr. Mark Wright.\u00a0 \u201cThe project was a complete overhaul.\u00a0 Each section was taken down to the studs.\u00a0 Updates to the building included bringing it up to code, installation of a complete heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system, and replacing electrical, plumbing, and flooring.\u00a0 We also replaced the entire roof.\u201d
\u00a0
The 107-year-old building is comprised of two separate sections. The original section was constructed in 1917, and the second was built in 1968.\u00a0 In 1918, building N-25-A became the \u201cGeneral School,\u201d containing various schools including training courses for machinist\u2019s mates and metalsmiths.
\u00a0
The Clendenin family was in attendance as well to honor their father and grandfather, Mr. William Allen (Al) Clendenin.\u00a0 Clendenin retired from active duty in June 1967 after 26 years of dedicated service and embarked on his civilian career in August 1967 as the senior learning evaluator for the Electronics School located in N-25. Upon retirement from civil service in August 1985, he was awarded the prestigious Navy Superior Civilian Service Award.\u00a0 On July 8, 1987, the Navy renamed N-25 as “Clendenin Hall” in honor of his many years of service to the Navy in the field of electronics and communication.
\u00a0
Today, the newly renovated 90,000 square foot building serves as home for SCSTC HR.\u00a0 Populated throughout the building are labs and classrooms supporting various training including Radar, Anti-Submarine Warfare, and Miniature\/Microminiature Electronics Repair.\u00a0 The facility also provides office space for personnel.\u00a0
\u00a0
\u201cWe are thrilled with the renovation but also appreciative of the historic significance of this building,\u201d said SCSTC HR\u2019s Commanding Officer, Capt. Riley Murdock.\u00a0 \u201cN-25 has been part of the training community since World War I and today, this facility will once again be utilized to train warfighters.\u201d
\u00a0
Surface Combat Systems Training Command (SCSTC), headquartered in Dahlgren, Virginia, falls under the Naval Education and Training Command (NETC), led by Rear Adm. Jeffrey Czerewko.\u00a0 SCSTC is a training organization that consists of 15 global learning sites and detachments.\u00a0 Its mission is to provide the U.S. Navy and our allies with highly trained warfighters to maintain, operate, and tactically employ surface combat systems across the spectrum of operations.\u00a0 Annually, SCSTC delivers training to over 37,000 U.S. Navy Sailors as well as international Sailors from 27 partner nations.\u00a0
