Chief Operations Specialist Nate Klimis holds back tears as a chief petty officer cover is placed atop his head during a CPO pinning ceremony aboard USS Bataan (LHD-5) Sept. 16, 2016. Klimis said becoming a chief is something no one can do alone. “When we first come into the Navy, a lot of us don’t know what it means to hold the weight of the anchor,” he said of his new title. After 18 years of service Klimis says he’s ready for the responsibility of “the chief.” (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Matthew Callahan)
