USN (Ret.) Admiral William A. Owens moderated this discussion that included Admiral Edmund Giambastiani, William L. Givens, Pamela L. Krahl, M.D., MPH and Professor Neil Todreas as they discussed the career of CEE Co-Founder Admiral H.G. Rickover
The Center for Excellence in Education (CEE), a nonprofit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, was founded in 1983 by the late Admiral H.G. Rickover and Joann P. DiGennaro, President of the Center. The Center’s mission is to nurture high school and university scholars to careers of excellence and leadership in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), and to encourage collaboration between and among scientific and technological leaders in the global community. CEE sponsors the Research Science Institute (RSI), USA Biolympiad (USABO), Teacher Enrichment Program (TEP), and STEM Lyceums. CEE programs are provided cost-free to participating students and teachers, thereby leveling the playing field for economically disadvantaged students. The Center’s nonprofit mission is supported by corporations, foundations, individuals, and government agencies. For more information, visit www.cee.org

I’m very proud to say that my mother, Joan T Petit Morency, served as Captain (not yet Admiral) Rickover’s shorthand Transcriptionist, during her time in DC in 1948-‘51 according to his son, Robert. She never mentioned her Service to her family, due to her Top-Top Security clearance, The Oscar winning film, “Darkest Hour,” shows what working for a great man (Churchill) must have been like to endure for a young, unmarried woman. Alas, Joan and her anecdotes are gone,. She never left any trace, because she took security very seriously.
I happened upon this video and realized I worked for "Rear Admiral" Giambastiani when he was my Squadron Commander 30 odd years ago. I was the Chief Machinery Division Nuke on the Providence SSN 719. Who knew a 1 star Admiral I actually knew would be on this panel as a 4 star. Talking about the times of our unique Mentor, Hyman G. Rickover. We are all getting older that's for sure. And none of us who lived through those times accepted nothing less than excellence from our selves and those who worked for us. Nuclear Power still is the Future just as it was back then.
The NR-1 was an amazing sub. This first speaker Ed must have impressed the heck out of the Admiral, because that was an almost $100million pet project of Admiral Rickover. It was his baby and he dreamed of a fleet of them.
I admire Admiral Rickover. I would have loved to hear a conversation between him and Admiral Grace Hopper.
Though this is a 3 year old video, it is an important video and not just about Naval Nuclear Power but for technology in general and current political issues as well. The KOG was an outlier in history but an important, nay, very important figure in our history. He was a miserable bastard from my career working under him from '60 through '83 but he was always always absolutely correct - God bless him.
Would love to see Cillian Murphy tackle the role of ADM Rickover in a film. If he can do Oppenheimer, why not Rickover?
Rickover was Polish Jewish family from Maków Mazowiecki in Poland.
Rickover was tough.
