170913-N-PS473-022 MANAMA, Bahrain (Sept. 13, 2017) Dr. Terry Greene, principal of Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) Bahrain School, right, gives Vice Adm. Mary M. Jackson, commander of Navy Installations Command (CNIC) a tour of the school during a visit to Naval Support Activity (NSA) Bahrain Sept. 13. This was Jackson's first visit to the installation since becoming CNIC earlier this year. As the persistent shore presence in the Arabian Gulf, NSA Bahrain provides an operational platform for U.S., allied, and partner nations to have a forward deployed naval force ready to be where they are needed, when they are needed to secure security and stability in the region.
