Carole Lynn Castillo is a figure competitor, quite the beauty and also a navy sailor. Carole’s rank is “aviation maintenance petty officer second class, air warfare, surface warfare qualified“. I have no clue what all that means, but sounds like very serious stuff to me.

She has competed in three figure shows so far, and her next is the NPC Emerald Cup in Washington in April.

Castillo was stationed at a Naval Station in San Diego and embarked on her first deployment in the spring of 2003. As an undesignated deck seaman, she traveled the Pacific and Indian oceans, and made stops in Australia, Thailand, and the United Arab Emirates.

The young sailor quickly adapted to life on the ship. During her second deployment, she started weight training. She was not only interested in meeting the military’s physical standards. She wanted to go beyond them. Castillo made frequent trips to the gym and asked her shipmates for guidance.
