Suffolk, Va., Compound hosted the FY26 Navy Chief Petty Officer Pinning Ceremony on Sept. 16, 2025, for Naval Information Forces, Joint Chiefs of Staff, Naval Network Warfare Command, and Navy Cyber Defense Operations Command. 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. Friends, family, and shipmates gathered to witness the milestone as these new 18 Chief Petty Officers, and 1 Sergeant First Class (Honorary Chief) were pinned with their anchors and donned their covers symbolizing their transition to their new rank.
