We are always looking for talented individuals who are looking to volunteer aboard the ship as a maintenance volunteer or as a tour guide.
Education
USS SLATER’s Education Crew is responsible for conducting tours of the ship. They also go out into the community and share stories of Destroyer Escorts. We give oral presentations, set up displays, host a podcast, interview DE sailors, and partner with area libraries. If you’d like to join our team, please return an application to Shanna.
