New Supply Corps junior officers attend the Navy Supply Corps School (NSCS) in Athens, Georgia.

NSCS occupies a fifty-eight-acre campus rich in educational heritage. The site had been used as a school since the 1860s, first for the University of Georgia's University High School, then as a Confederate military school, and at the end of the U.S. Civil War, a federal garrison. In 1866 the site housed a school for disabled young Confederate veterans, which existed with state support for two years; then as a state normal school.

The Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission of 2005 decreed that NSCS will be closed here and re-located to Naval Station Newport, Rhode Island in 2011.
