    Command Master Chief (CMDCM) Jorrel Reich, CMDCM of the Wasp-class amphibious ship USS Makin Island (LHD 8), accepts Chief Logistics Specialist Iris Gallarde into the chief’s mess during the FY25 chief pinning ceremony on the flight deck aboard Makin Island, Sept. 27, 2024. Advancement to the rank of Chief Petty Officer requires a Sailor to take on the dual role of technical expert and designated leader. The title of “Chief” carries with it a tradition of knowledge, teamwork, and the ability to take charge that began when the Navy first introduced the rank on April 1, 1893.
