    U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt. Donald Rich, expeditionary fuels chief, with Marine Wing Support Squadron 172, receives his chief’s anchors during an island-wide chief pinning ceremony on Kadena Air Base, Okinawa, Japan, Sept. 27, 2024. The ceremony marked the end of the Chief Petty Officer Initiation course, which created a mentorship space for junior chief petty officers to learn from their senior counterparts. Each participant is trained and tested on Navy core values, and receives a locked wooden box, also known as a vessel, to take with them throughout the entire course. Rich is a native of South Carolina. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Staff Sgt. Maximiliano Rosas)
