SUBASE Welcomes newest Chief Petty Officers
Fiscal year 2013 LDO/CWO package deadline approaches
By MC3 Andrea Perez
Navy Personnel Command Public
Affairs Office
MILLINGTON, Tenn. -
The application deadline for
E6-E9 Sailors for the Fiscal
Year 2013 Limited Duty
Officer (LDO) and Chief
Warrant Officer (CWO) pro-
grams is fast approaching,
officials said Sept. 12.
LDO/CWO applications
must be postmarked
no later than Oct. 1 for
active-duty Sailors and
Nov. 1 for reservists.
Both programs provide
the Navy with officers
who are technical-based
leaders and technical
experts in key positions
throughout the service,
said Chief Warrant
Officer Mitchell Allen,
CWO community man-
ager, Bureau of Naval
Personnel (BUPERS).
Limited duty offi-
cers and chief warrant
officers are technical
experts selected from
the enlisted ranks, said
Allen. LDOs become
technical leaders, like
commanding officers of
schoolhouses or shipyard
repair facilities, while
chief warrant officers
stay technical experts in
their field often in repeti-
tive assignments.
The LDO and CWO
programs provide out-
standing senior enlisted
personnel the opportu-
nity to compete for a
commission without the
requirement of a college
degree. Combined, these
two communities make
up 11 percent of the offi-
cer corps.
Over the next several
years, we will be revising
the application windows
in which senior enlisted
Sailors can apply for the
LDO/CWO programs,
said Allen. Our hope is
to create an even more
technically-focused com-
munity, with a more
predictable career path,
more detailed opportu-
nities and better career
progression.
Applicants must meet
basic eligibility require-
ments, outlined in
NAVADMIN 224/11 for
active-duty or NAVADMIN
226/11 for Reserve, before
applying for the LDO/
CWO programs.
For the LDO/CWO
community, theres only
one way to get in and
thats sustained superior
performance, said Capt.
John Jones, LDO/CWO
community manager,
BUPERS. The applica-
tion process is tough and
many Sailors wont pick
up until at least their
third try. We dont want
Sailors to give up, were
looking for consistency
and we want to see them
continue to apply.
Eligible Sailors are
encouraged to apply for
the designator for which
they are most qualified,
regardless of their cur-
rent rating. Upon com-
missioning, Sailors
selected for LDO/CWO
will attend the four-week
Officer Development
School in Newport, R.I.

By MC1(AW) Peter D. Blair
GROTON, Conn. For
118 years, the Navys
best First Class Petty
Officers have made the
transition to Chief Petty
Officer (CPO). In the pro-
cess theyve learned (or
relearned) how to lead
not only junior Sailors
but how to mold junior
officers into the leaders
the Navy needs. On Sept.
16, Naval Submarine Base
New London (SUBASE)
welcomed SUBASEs and
its tenant commands, new-
est deckplate leaders into
the Chief Petty Officers
mess. Since early August,
when CPO advancement
results came out until they
were pinned, the newest
Chiefs have undergone a
tremendous change. From
classroom style and physi-
cal training, to completing
specific tasks and talking
with CPOs across the base
about their experiences as
the Chief, each selectee
had to learn how to be a
CPO.

State recognizes award-winning partnership
of SECT military, school districts
By MC1(AW) Peter D. Blair
OLD LYME, Conn. -
The State of Connecticut
recognized the U.S.
Navy, the U.S. Coast
Guard, and Southeastern
Connecticuts Military
Superintendents Liaison
Committee (MSLC) for
earning a national part-
nership award, during
the first Southeastern
Connecticut Association
of School Administrators
meeting of the new school
year, at LEARN in Old
Lyme, Sept. 16.
Governor Dannel P. Malloy
commended the services and
the MSLC for their exempla-
ry efforts on behalf of mili-
tary children which earned
them the 2011 Pete Taylor
Exemplary Partnership
Award during the Military
Child Education Coalitions
13th Annual Conference in
Nashville, Tennessee over
the summer.
At the meeting, Robert
T. Ross, Executive Director
of Connecticuts Office of
Military Affairs, present-
ed representatives from
Naval Submarine Base
New London (SUBASE),
the U.S. Coast Guard
Academy, and the MSLC
with a letter from the
Governor.
You have been tireless
advocates for military fami-
lies and championed policy
decisions at the State and
local level that enhanced
the quality of life for those
who sacrifice so much for
us, wrote Malloy.
A partnership of local
school Superintendents,
military leaders at the
SUBASE and the U.S.
Coast Guard Academy,
and interested community
members, the MSLC was
formed in 1995 to improve
cross-communications on
current academic and mil-
itary issues.
Malloy underscored the
continuing need for the
MSLC.
As our Nation draws
down from two very long
wars in Southwest Asia,
the special needs of ser-
vice members and their
families will require care-
ful, compassionate atten-
tion, Malloy wrote.
Unfortunately, fewer and
fewer everyday Amercians
are aware of the need
according to Ross.
Right now only about
one percent of America
is associated with the
military, said Ross.
Increasingly that other
99 percent of America is
becoming less involved;
they have fewer intersec-
tions with the military,
and they know about the
military only through what
they read in the paper.
The MSLC plays a key
role in keeping the commu-
nity informed of the issues
faced by military members
and their children.
You have this great-
er awareness about the
uniqueness of military
families, and the way
we can make reason-
able accommodations for
them, said Ross.
The MSLC spearheaded
a number of accomoda-
tions and initiatives over
the last year. In addition
to maintaining multiple
thriving individual com-
mand partnerships engag-
ing numerous SUBASE
and Coast Guard Academy
personnel with specific
schools, MSLC successes
ranged from: establish-
ing a Magnet School Pilot
Program which signifi-
cantly increased opportu-
nities and access to area
magnet schools for transi-
tioning military families;

Navy seeks applicants for enlisted selection boards
By MC3 Andrea Perez
Navy Personnel Command Public
Affairs Office
MILLINGTON, Tenn. -
Navy Personnel Command
announced Sept. 2 that it
is seeking senior enlisted
leaders to serve on Fiscal
Year 2013 active-duty and
reserve E-9, E-8 and E-7
selection boards.
Participation by senior
leaders in selection boards
is paramount to the Navys
future, said Navy Personnel
Command (NPC) Force
Master Chief (AW/SW/
NAC) Jon Port. You should
consider it a fundamental
duty that when youre pro-
moted to a certain pay grade,
its your responsibility to go
back and select those who
will relieve you.
A master chiefs career
is not considered complete
until they have participated
as a member of an enlisted
selection board, according
to Port. There are approxi-
mately 2,600 master chief
petty officers in the Navy
and every individual not
otherwise restricted from
participating in a selection
board is strongly encour-
aged to volunteer.
Master chiefs are the
senior enlisted advisors to
the chiefs mess and guide
Sailors to make the right
career choices, so they
continue to develop and
promote, said Port. You
cant truly know how to
advise your Sailors until
you have sat the selection
board process yourself and
understand what goes into
it, how records are reviewed
and how the integrity of the
board comes together.
Active and reserve com-
ponent master chiefs are
encouraged to apply for
any of the above boards.
Frocked master chiefs may
also participate in the selec-
tion board process. There is
no restriction on active-duty
serving on reserve boards
or reserve/full-time support
serving on active boards.
Senior chief petty officers
may also serve on the active
or reserve E-7 boards as
either members or record-
ers. They may only serve as
recorders on the E-9 or E-8
boards. Chief petty officers
may serve as recorders on
E-9, E-8 and E-7 selection
boards.
Preserving the integrity of
the selection board process
before, during and after a
board is vital to the reliabil-
ity of the board, said Port. It
is also important that pro-
spective candidates submit
their application on their
own behalf. Forwarding
via administrative person-
nel will compromise board
membership and could
invalidate their application.
Only those in an applicants
chain of command or their
fleet/force master chief need
to know of their participa-
tion on a selection board.
Participation on a future
board should not be dis-
cussed with fellow mem-
bers while serving on an
earlier board.
Potential board members
are charged with preserv-
ing board information the
moment they are officially
notified by NPC that they
have been chosen to sit on a
promotion selection board.
Rules of engagement can be
found on NPCs website at
www.npc.navy.mil/boards/
selectionboardsupport.>
Ive served on selection
boards before and it is chal-
lenging work, but never
did I leave a board with-
out feeling like I accom-
plished something great. I
made a mark on my Navys
future, and I made a mark
on myself with that experi-
ence, said Port.
Prior to submitting an
application, Sailors should
also review BUPERSINST
1401.5A, the supplemen-
tal guidance for U.S. Navy
selection boards.
Complete application pro-
cedures, eligibility require-
ments and links to other
resources can be found in
NAVADMIN 249/11, avail-
able on the NPC website
at www.npc.navy.mil
or contact the NPC cus-
tomer service center at

Training makes the difference for motorcycle riders
By April Phillips
Naval Safety Center Public Affairs
NORFOLK - A Sailor
was killed Sept. 5 while rid-
ing his motorcycle. Reports
say he was traveling at
a speed in excess of 130
miles per hour, and while
he had attended the Basic
Rider Course (BRC), he had
not attended the Military
Sportbike Rider Course
(MSRC).
While motorcycle fatalities
have declined steadily since
2008, that positive trend is
slowing and there are still
Navy and Marine Corps rid-
ers who require training.
Even the most devoted
motorcyclists admit riding
is a risky mode of trans-
portation. With no seat-
belts or steel cage for pro-
tection, theres less room
for error making training
vitally important. However,
all motorcycles are not the
same. In 2008, the Navy and
Marine Corps lost 58 people
to motorcycle crashes and
the majority of them were
on sportbikes. It became
apparent that something had
to be done to train Sailors
and Marines to handle these
bikes that were built for the
track, however most were
being ridden on the street.
In June of 2009, the
MSRC was unveiled. It was
designed to teach sportbike
riders about the specifics of
the motorcycles they ride.
The sportbike course
teaches handling charac-
teristics, but students also
learn about Operational Risk
Management and thats a
big part of successful riding,
said Dave Kerrick, head of
the Naval Safety Centers
traffic safety division.
Statistics show the course
has been a huge success.
In 2009, motorcycle fatali-
ties dropped to 28 for the
Fleet and in 2010 they were
down to 21.
Unfortunately, the posi-
tive trend may be stalling.
Weve reached a pla-
teau, Kerrick said candidly.
To date in fiscal year 2011,
26 Sailors and Marines have
been killed on motorcycles.
Kerrick said it shows the
importance of training.
Get your people into
the training, he said. The
untrained riders are still the
ones being killed.
While several of the fatal
crashes involved sport-
bike riders who had com-
pleted the BRC, they had
not yet attended the MSRC.
Approximately 2,000 known
sportbike riders in the fleet
have not received this train-
ing. Kerrick said many are
frustrated because courses
are full. Unfortunately, there
are a large number of no
shows and many classes
have extra spaces available.
If you have trouble get-
ting into a class or if you
have any questions, contact
your base safety officer,
said Kerrick. The installa-
tion safety office needs to
hear concerns so we can
work to fix any issues.

To Groton Public

One of the biggest
concerns for military

At the heart of every
MSLC action are the goals
of strengthening mutual

ity of life for military stu-
dents and families, said
Denno. Whether it is a
mobile family or a mili-
tary familythis award
represents everyones sup-
port in educating kids.
The Pete Taylor Award
is named for the retired
Lieutenant General and
former Chairman of the

encouraged and applaud-
ed outstanding partner-

Its certainly clear to
me that the MSLC and the

tary installations it sup-
ports epitomize General
Taylors profound convic-
tion that goodness hap-
pens at the local level,
said Ross.
The award also comes
with a $3,000 gift for the
MSLC to use in support
of on-going or future pro-
grams.

undergoing any sort
of reduction in force
because of their technical
necessity, said Jones.

More responsibilities
as a limited duty officer
or chief warrant officer
mean more benefits, too,
said Jones.
If you are selected for
our program as a petty
officer first class, your
paycheck will double
within four years. The
long-term benefit is a
substantial retirement
check that is double
what our great master
chiefs receive, said
Jones. Couple that with
our promotion rates and
that makes for a very
attractive program.
But its not just about
the financial benefits,
said Jones. Its about
understanding the minds
of Sailors and using that
knowledge to shape your
decisions and implement
change which best serves
our Navy. Thats what I
really love about the pro-
gram.

never returned home, right and below, Submarine Force Library
and Museum (SFLM) Executive Officer, Lieutenant Chris Callhoun
reads The Missing Man during the SFLM Prisoner of War/Missing
in Action (POW/MIA) Recognition Day commemoration, Sept. 16.
Originally held April 9th of each year, to coincide with the WWII
date where the most American service members were captured at
one time, the date would eventually be changed to the third Friday
in September. Honoring Americas POW/MIAs on this date doesnt
directly relate to any specific war and draws no special attention to
one group of missing service members over another.

retired Chief Machinist Mate Dennis Barden
helped pin on his anchors and presented him
with a cutlass during the ceremony.
It was the proudest moment Ive experi-
enced in my naval career, said Nicholson.
Nicholson, who works at SUBASEs Cross Hall
Galley returned from his Individual Augmentee
deployment in Afghanistan just prior to the
release of the Chief board results.
During each pinning ceremony, the newest
Chiefs were welcomed into the mess by the
Chiefs who had guided and mentored them
throughout their transition.
It was our intent to impress upon you
[the new Chiefs] that challenge is good, said
Master Chief Thomas Vatter, SUBASE Command
Master Chief as he read the Chief Petty Officer
Creed to the newest Chiefs that day. In the
future you will face adversity far beyond that
imposed upon you today. You must take each
challenge with the same grace and dignity that
you have demonstrated today.
Selection to the rank of Chief Petty Officer
is the most signifigant milestone in an enlisted
Sailors career and the rank is considered one of
the most exclusive fraternities in the world.
Unlike the advancement to junior Navy ranks,
personnel chosen to become CPOs are selected
by a board of Master Chief Petty Officers based
on their career performance.
Pinning ceremonies were held at the
SUBASEs Shepherd of the Sea chapel, Naval
Submarine School (SUBSCOL), National World
War II Submarine Memorial East and the
Submarine Force Library and Museum.

Honor Courage Commitment
Excellence
Leadership through
During the course of this
day you have been caused
to humbly accept challenge
and face adversity. This
you have accomplished with
rare good grace. Pointless
as some of these challenges
may have seemed, there were
valid, time-honored reasons
behind each pointed barb. It
was necessary to meet these
hurdles with blind faith in
the fellowship of Chief Petty
Officers. The goal was to
instill in you that trust is
inherent with the donning of
the uniform of a Chief.
It was our intent to impress
upon you that challenge is
good; a great and necessary
reality which cannot mar
you - which, in fact, strength-
ens you. In your future as a
Chief Petty Officer, you will
be forced to endure adver-
sity far beyond that imposed
upon you today. You must
face each challenge and
adversity with the same
dignity and good grace you
demonstrated today.
By experience, by perfor-
mance, and by testing, you
have been this day advanced
to Chief Petty Officer. In the
United States Navy - and
only in the United States
Navy - the rank of E7 carries
with it unique responsibili-
ties and privileges you are
now bound to observe and
expected to fulfill.
Your entire way of life is
now changed. More will be
expected of you; more will be
demanded of you. Not because
you are a E7 but because you
are now a Chief Petty Officer.
You have not merely been pro-
moted one paygrade, you have
joined an exclusive fellowship
and, as in all fellowships, you
have a special responsibility to
your comrades, even as they
have a special responsibility
to you. This is why we in
the United States Navy may
maintain with pride our feel-
ings of accomplishment once
we have attained the position
of Chief Petty Officer.
Your new responsibilities
and privileges do not appear
in print. They have no offi-
cial standing; they cannot be
referred to by name, number,
nor file. They have existed for
over 100 years, Chiefs before
you have freely accepted
responsibility beyond the call
of printed assignment. Their
actions and their perfor-
mance demanded the respect
of their seniors as well as
their juniors.
It is now required that you
be the fountain of wisdom,
the ambassador of good will,
the authority in personal
relations as well as in tech-
nical applications. Ask the
Chief is a household phrase
in and out of the Navy. You
are now the Chief.
The exalted position you
have now achieved - and the
word exalted is used advis-
edly - exists because of the
attitude and performance of
the Chiefs before you. It shall
exist only as long as you and
your fellow Chiefs maintain
these standards.
It was our intention that
you never forget this day.
It was our intention to test
you, to try you, and to accept
you. Your performance has
assured us that you will
wear the hat with the same
pride as your comrades in
arms before you.
We take a deep and sincere
pleasure in clasping your
hand, and accepting you as
a Chief Petty officer in the
United States Navy.
By Lt. Cmdr. Jennifer Cragg
Commander, Submarine Group Two Public Affairs
GROTON, Conn. - Three Sailors from Commander, Submarine Group
Two were promoted to the rank of chief petty officer (CPO) in front of the
Historic Ship Nautilus, Sept. 16.
The CSG Two Sailors who pinned on their anchor insignia on their col-
lars and joined the 118-year old tradition of chief petty officer leadership
were Chief Yeoman Sheila Trout; Chief Electricians Mate Owen Key; and
Chief Fire Control Technician Paul Pugh.
The annual ceremony, one of many which occurred around the word
throughout the Navy, was the culmination of a month-long selection pro-
cess geared toward instilling the skills and discipline necessary to become
a chief petty officer.
Reading from the Chief Petty Officers Creed, Command Master Chief
Wesley Koshoffer, Submarine Group Two, told the newly promoted chiefs,
In the United States Navy, and only in the United States Navy, the rank of
E7 carries with it unique responsibilities and privileges you are now bound
to observe and expected to fulfill.
The rank of chief petty officer was established by the Department of the
Navy in 1893 and has remained in the service without pause ever since.
This is why we in the United States Navy may maintain with pride our
feelings of accomplishment once we have maintained the position of chief
petty officer, said Koshoffer. It is now required that you be the fountain of
wisdom, the ambassador of good will, the authority in personal relations as
well as in technical applications.
Rear Admiral Rick Breckenridge, Commander, Submarine Group Two
congratulated the newly promoted chiefs during the ceremony and reflected
on this important milestone in their naval careers.
Today is a tremendous day to participate in the pinning of our chief petty
officers and watch their ascension to that level of chief petty officer, said
Breckenridge. Chief petty officers are absolute experts in their fields who
give their firm commitment and lives to their country while supporting their
Sailors.
In addition to pinning on their anchors, the new chiefs also received their
combination covers, hats that are symbolic of the chiefs community.

6 THE DOLPHIN Thursday, September 22, 2011

MC1 (AW) Tim Comerford
The Flagship Staff Writer

NORFOLK - The
induction process may
look hard to an outside
observer. To selectees on
the inside, experiencing
the process is a gruel-
ing series of challenges
that dont let up until
the day they put on their
anchors.
In this second part of
our two-part series on
chiefs induction, we look
at the process of induc-
tion and some of lead-
ership traditions chiefs
have passed down.
We are really trying to
break them down a little
bit, get them out of their
comfort zone, build them
back up and on Sept. 16,
they know they have
made a transition, they
know they are in a differ-
ent operating mode and
understand mostly what
it means to be a chief
petty officer (CPO) and
what their new role is,
said Command Master
Chief (EXW/SW/AW/PJ)
David B. Carter, Naval
Station Norfolk.
The process starts right
away with physical train-
ing (PT), classes, home-
work and events for chief
selectees to accomplish.
Selectees also spend
a week to do required
course work for their ser-
vice records. The CPO
Indoctrination course is
the only mandatory part
of the process. All the
rest is strictly voluntary.
The six-week process
has selectees doing many
events to get them ready
for the life as a CPO. But
the chiefs realize that for
many selectees, becoming
a chief isnt something
they are doing by them-
selves, but with spouses
and children also.
We are really trying
to get the family involved
too, said Carter. We
want the spouse involved,
we want the kids
involved, we want them
to understand the impor-
tance of being a chief
petty officer and what it
means to them as a fam-
ily. At events where it is
appropriate, families are
invited. We want to inter-
act with families because
the families become a
part of the mess too.
Fundraising helps the
selectees with items they
need and also helps sup-
port the ball.
A lot of people see just
the money perspective of
it and there is that at
the end of the season is
the khaki ball, a big cel-
ebratory event where we
go out and break bread
and talk and hang out
together as a Chiefs Mess
with all our new chiefs.
Its a fun time, but it
costs money to do and to
do it right.
But there is more to
fundraising than the
money.
It isnt just about the
money, its also about
them as a group coming
together to task, delegate
and learn how to orga-
nize, Carter explained.
They also learn how to
communicate with the
Chiefs Mess at large
because they not only
have to put together the
event, but they also have
to advertise and make
sure we know about it so
we can be there to sup-
port.
The homework tasking
also helps the selectees to
grow into their new role.
Typically everything
we do ties back to our
core values or leadership
principles or something
heritage related, he said.
Book reports from the
Navy leadership reading
lists and researching his-
tory are common assign-
ments. One of the core
taskings as a chief petty
officer is to protect and
guard our heritage.
One of the items that
has become part of that
tradition is the chief petty
officer charge books.
During World War II
when a Sailor was identi-
fied for advancement to
chief back then the Navy
only had chiefs, there
were no senior chief or
master chiefs they were
charge with going around
to various chief on the
ship and talking to them
about aspects of being a
chief and learning more
about their jobs, Carter
explained. They carried
a book which they took
these notes in and this was
an important part of their
advancement process. It
was for them to gain wis-
dom and knowledge.
And todays charge
books are much he
same.
We give them specific
tasking on how the charge
book is to be assembled
and what is supposed to
be in it. But that is just
to see if they can follow
orders, said Carter. The
purpose of the charge
book is to get them out
meeting other chiefs and
getting to know the mess
and giving guidance.
A lot of us will spend
quite a bit of time telling
them, This is what you
need to think about. It
is something that chiefs
can always refer back to
if we ever find ourselves
in a bind and get some
tips and wisdom for those
who came before.
The wisdom on the
inside is up to the select-
ee though.
How much informa-
tion gets in the charge
book depends on the
selectee and how diligent
they are about getting out
and meeting the chiefs
and asking them for the
wisdom and guidance,
Carter said.
And communications
and connection are a big
strength for chief petty
officers.
When you look at
our anchor, the chain
that actually signifies the
unity of the chiefs mess
and how each are part
of the whole and make
it stronger, said Carter.
Getting to know each
other and really connect
with our brother and sis-
ters in the mess. You may
have heard the expres-
sion, Ask the chief. Well
the individual chief may
not know the answer to a
question, but Id be will-
ing to bet that individual
knows a person who does
and has a connection
with them because they
are chief petty officers.
If you see chief select-
ees carry around a wood-
en box, that is the charge
book cover.
It is designed to pro-
tect the book, it keeps
it safe and it has a lot
of memories associated
with it, said Carter.
And after the events,
the wisdom, the PT, the
long nights and early days
once the anchor is affixed
and the cover presented,
the selectees should be
sure of one thing.
They should have the
feeling that I am now the
chief and I am now in
charge. But they should
also understand that every
single chief petty officer
in the United States Navy
has got their back.

tors, allowing visitors to

way through the Museum
grounds.
Visitors are encouraged
to wear 1920s attire. For

Kevin Kline, and is
rated PG-13 and runs
for 122 minutes.

and open to the pub-
lic. Reservations are not
