responsibilities. She was no longer the Doctor that could come in to see her patients, and leave at the end of the day. She was now responsible for overseeing all employees, payroll, taxes, and maintenance needed for the building and several other tasks, which were previously out of her scope.

So I asked the officers at the stand about it. They did not know much about the Sea Cadets so I decided to take a look on like. It was everything I wanted, strong naval presence, we wear the navy uniform, and we march in parades. So that day I joined. I got assigned to the Arkansas division, and to this day I am still in the Sea Cadets.…

examples of fraternization, and I will recommend the business decision my command should take regarding fraternization. Most people think that fraternization is just between a female and male but that is only one form of fraternization. “All the services prohibit personal and business relationships between officers and enlisted members, calling them prejudicial to good order and discipline. Personal…

Chief Petty Officers Academy. I left for Chief Petty Officers Academy with a positive outlook, and was determined to make the most of it. On the very first day of class, Senior Chief Rob Lynn said something that reinforced my outlook. He said “This is your Class 216, and it will be whatever you want it to be.” That simple statement resonated with me, and from that moment forward I was all in. I like to think that I did put my full effort into the class, and I will most certainly take away plenty…

Leadership is setting the example for others to follow, being able to follow others no matter what their rank, having professional knowledge and taking care of your people. You must be willing to set the example even when you think no one is looking; because there is always someone watching you whether you know it or not. One of my biggest leadership influences during my career was Senior Chief Brian Dumas. He was the consummate professional, he treated everyone with respect and dignity and…

the Constitution. Accomplishing the mission would make the Skipper look good and in doing so make me, the Division Officer, look good. Great measures must be taken to accomplish the mission, but the mission is not worth compromising one’s personal honor and integrity. As an officer, it is my duty to take full responsibility for my division. Things will not always go perfectly, and it is important to accept the consequences of not completing tasks on time,…
