U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Christopher D. Stone, Commander, Expeditionary Strike Group Seven; Commander, Task Force 76, congratulates the newly initiated chiefs 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. Stone is a native of Texas.
