SAN DIEGO (Sept 16, 2022) – Newly-graduated Warfare Tactics Instructors (WTI) gather for a group photo following their graduation ceremony at Naval Surface and Mine Warfighting Development Center (SMWDC) on Naval Base San Diego Sept. 16, 2022. There were 38 WTIs who graduated after approximately four months of advanced courses to become warfighting experts in one of the four surface warfare areas – amphibious warfare (AMW), anti-submarine warfare/surface warfare (ASW/SUW), integrated air and missile defense (IAMD), and mine warfare (MIW).
WTIs are an elite cadre of surface warfare officers selected to become experts in tactics and doctrine development. This new generation of surface warriors are charged with increasing the tactical proficiency and lethality of surface ships while maintaining sea control and maritime dominance.
SWOs interested in joining the SMWDC team and becoming WTIs can email SWO_WTI@navy.mil for more information. Learn more about SMWDC visit www.facebook.com/SMWDC or www.surfpac.navy.mil/Ships/Naval-Surface-and-Mine-Warfighting-Development-Center-SMWDC/About/WTI/.
