It is time to begin manning USNS Robert E. Simanek (ESB-7) and we are looking for our Navy's best and brightest talent to join the team that will set the watch and man the rails. USS Robert E. Simanek (ESB-7) will be a Lewis B. Puller-class expeditionary mobile base for the United States Navy, and she is the first United States Navy vessel named after Marine Corps Private First Class Robert Ernest Simanek, who was awarded for the Medal of Honor for heroic actions during the Battle of Bunker Hill, August1952, during the Korean War.
