SAN DIEGO (Aug. 21, 2023) Yeoman 1st Class Jonathan E. Gruber, from Temecula, California, receives congratulatory applause after being surprised of his new status as a chief petty officer (CPO) selectee at the Navy Talent Acquisition Group (NTAG) Southwest department head meeting, Aug. 21, 2023. Gruber is one of 18 selectees who will participate in a six-week CPO 360 training period with the command CPO Mess. In the Navy, promotion to be the rank of CPO requires a Sailor to take on the dual role of technical expert and designated leader. The title of “The Chief” carries with it a tradition of knowledge, teamwork and the ability to take charge that began when the U.S. Navy first introduced the rank in 1893. (U.S. Navy photo by Todd J.
