Newport Academy

Union Fleet Installation on Planet Newport

The Newport Elite Academy, was one of the Academy Branches to used to further educate and groom talented cadets in their third year for Command roles. The concept was strongly opposed by Admiral Stahl, who vehemently argued against Elite Schools and argued for On hands training aboard ships. The Newport Academy was until recently the site for the Reagan Trophy Challenge While under the Command of Admiral Dent the School and the concept became seriously corrupted and was influenced by the Worm. The School was permanently closed in 5019 after one of the most spectacular and also most embarassing public broadcasted military trial cases in Union Fleet History, leading to the public executon of 23 Union Officers, the forced resettlement to Penal Colonies of 45 Officers and personnel. The facility is currently refurbished and will be re-opened as regular standard academy. The ROTC College remains open after extensive investigations revealed that there was no connection to the events at the former Elite Academy.
