  "summary": "The Ghana Navy added 346 new recruits to its ranks after they successfully completed 26 weeks of intensive military and basic naval training. The graduates, who were part of Basic Training Intake 85 (BT 85), underwent classroom-based lessons, practical exercises, and military drills at the Naval Recruit Training School (NRTS) to equip them with the necessary skills and discipline for service in the Ghana Navy. During the passing-out parade held at the Naval Training Command (NAVTRAC) Parade Square in the Volta Region, Volta Regional Minister James Gunu congratulated the recruits on completing a rigorous programme that tested their physical abilities, academic knowledge, and character. He emphasized the greater responsibility and trust that comes with joining the Ghana Armed Forces, urging the new naval personnel to uphold integrity, professionalism, and patriotism in their duties and remain vigilant against emerging security threats.",
