230428-N-TH560-1024 WASHINGTON (April 28, 2023) Master Chief Gunner’s Mate Jessica Harrison, from Twin Falls, Idaho, stands alongside Chief of Navy Reserve Vice Adm. John Mustin during her pinning ceremony inside the Delbert D. Black National Chief’s Mess at the U.S. Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C., April 28, 2023.
“This is a pretty significant accomplishment as an individual milestone, but also for the service; probably long overdue, but I couldn't be more psyched to be here to share this moment with you,” Mustin said during the ceremony.
Harrison is the first woman in the U.S. Navy to achieve the rank of E-9 in the gunner’s mate rating, a career field dating back to the birth of the Navy. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Jeanette Mullinax)
