Little Creek, Va. (Oct. 14, 2016). Rear Adm. John Wade (middle), commander of the Naval Surface and Mine Warfighting Development Center (SMWDC) congratulates the second class of amphibious Warfare Tactics Instructors, prior to their graduation at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story. Akin to Navy Fighter Weapons School (TOP GUN) for the Navy's best aviators, SMWDC is charged with increasing the tactical proficiency of the surface fleet by selecting an elite cadre of surface warfare officers to become warfare tactics instructors (WTI) -- the tactical best of the best. WTIs come from three communities: integrated air and missile defense, amphibious warfare, and anti-submarine/anti-surface warfare.
