You guys gotta read this resume. Holy Smokes, he is unlike any Chief I ever knew, or work under.
The new Navy; smarter, more educated, wider range of experiences & jobs & professional.

(Now this is not to demean anyone on this board)

Wait a minute.... he enlisted in 1980 attended 3 schools and reported aboard a Boomer 10 months later as Aux LPO?? Youd'a thunk a boat that big would require a more experienced Aux LPO. Maybe they ment to say that by the END of his 9th patrol he made LPO?????

He reported aboard 622 Blue about the time I transferred to Instructor Duty at the Electrical Schools, NTC San Diego. Might have met him in the off-crew office.

Probably right that by the end of his tour on the Monroe he had risen to Aux LPO. We had a couple of good Chiefs and 1st-classes in A-gang when I left, but I'll be darned if I can remember their names after all these years.

Noticed that he has the MM prop on his crow. I thought COB's and Command MC's wore a star and were no longer considered to be in their rating. This was supposed to open up promotion opportunities?

Chris,

Command MC's do wear the star, and are in charge of a School, such as BESS, the lower base in NLON or as CDMC of the Navy...but COB's wear their rating badge...EM,ET,MM.
