230929-N-UL721-1028 BREMERTON, Wash. (Sept. 29, 2023) Chief Culinary Specialist (Submarines) Leroy Bryan receives his Navy anchor pins by his family during the Commander, Submarine Group 9 chief petty officer pinning ceremony at the Bremerton Veterans of Foreign Wars post. The earliest known use of the term “chief petty officer” dates to 1776 onboard Continental Navy Ship Alfred, when the title “chief cook” was conferred upon the cook’s mate. Chiefs are recognized for exemplary technical expertise within their rating, superior administrative skills, and strong leadership ability. Most importantly, chiefs bridge the gap between officers and enlisted personnel, acting as supervisors as well as advocates for their Sailors. (U.S. Navy photo by Lt. Corey Todd Jones/Released)
