This week’s Warrior of the Week is ET2 Jonathan Mercier of Combat Systems from New Mexico. As one of our Navigation Technicians, ET2 Mercier led the team through a high-tempo Navigation Certification, correcting 14 major discrepancies enabling an on-time certification for Reagan. His technical expertise have resolved equipment alarms, completed required testing, and executed complex system alignments of critical navigation equipment. He successfully troubleshot a required data distribution system, instantly restoring critical feeds to our systems. And ET2’s after-hour validations and alignments have guaranteed 100% navigation readiness for Reagan at sea. Thanks for the hard work ET2!

Born to move. Built to serve. 🏍️⚓️

Hailing from Fresno, California, Retail Specialist 3rd Class Lawson McAlister is one of seven brothers and was born second of triplets. Growing up, sports were a huge part of his life as he participated in football, basketball, baseball, track, lacrosse and volleyball, eventually earning a college scholarship for track. Due to his father’s passion for motorcycles and owning one, McAlister became intrigued at the age of six as he fantasized and stated he’d get his own someday. His father eventually entertained that passion and began to teach his son how to drive at 14 years old on a GSXR1000.

For McAlister, riding was, and still is, freedom.

“When there’s nothing but open road and nobody around, I feel like I have two amazing options that I’m always satisfied with,” said McAlister. “I can either choose to drop all my problems for a second and create solid lines or look around and just enjoy the small things like random paintings and the trees in Washington.”

McAlister enjoys solo trips and riding year-round. He said he loves the sun and the heat, but night rides hit different when he doesn’t have to bundle up. But surprisingly, rainy days might be his favorite.

“There’s something almost therapeutic about riding through the unpredictability,” said McAlister. Sometimes the open road is more than just a road. Sometimes it’s where you find yourself again.”

Sailor. Rider. Brother. Son. Friend. This is Lawson McAlister.
