NEWPORT, R.I. – President’s Honor Graduate Awardee Lt. Cmdr. Brittany A. Collins, a student of the U.S. Naval War College’s (NWC) College of Naval Command and Staff’s (CNCS) intermediate-level leadership program, delivers remarks during the spring graduation ceremony onboard Naval Station Newport, R.I., March 6, 2026. The ceremony honored a total of 51 graduating officers from the U.S. Navy, Army and Marine Corps. Graduates included 12 students from the College of Naval Warfare’s (CNW) senior-level leadership program and 39 students from the CNCS. Established in 1884, NWC is the oldest institution of its kind in the world. More than 50,000 students have graduated since its first class of nine students in 1885 and about 300 of today’s active-duty admirals, generals and senior executive service leaders are alumni. Since creating a program for international officers in 1956, the college has more than 4,500 international alumni from 137 countries worldwide. Approximately ten percent of these alumni have become chief of their country’s respective navy. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Connor Burns)
