YOKOSUKA, Japan (Sept. 16, 2025) – Hospital Corpsman Chief Erickson Simon dons a chief petty officer combination cover during the U.S. Naval Hospital (USNH) Yokosuka Chief Petty Officer Pinning Ceremony. The time-honored event, steeped in naval heritage, marked the transition of new Chiefs into the Navy’s senior enlisted ranks through the symbolic pinning of anchors and the recitation of the CPO Creed.
