NEWPORT, R.I. – The U.S. Naval War College (NWC) holds its spring graduation ceremony for the College of Naval Warfare (CNW) and College of Naval Command and Staff March 6, 2024, on board Naval Station Newport, R.I. The ceremony honored 41 graduates from the U.S. Navy, Army, and Marine Corps with NWC President Rear Adm. Pete Garvin presiding over the graduation. Professor William Murray, who was selected by the students, provided keynote remarks. Established in 1884, NWC is the oldest institution of its kind in the world. More than 50,000 students have graduated since its first class of nine students in 1885 and about 300 of today’s active-duty admirals, generals and senior executive service leaders are alumni. Since creating a program for international officers in 1956, the college has more than 4,500 international alumni from 137 countries worldwide. Approximately 10 percent of these alumni have become chief of their country’s respective navy. Today, NWC continues to deliver excellence in education, research, and outreach, informing today’s decision-makers and educating tomorrow’s leaders. (U.S. Navy photo by Kristopher Burris)
