NEWPORT, R.I.— U.S. Naval War College (NWC) President Rear Adm. Darryl Walker asks a question to students of the Stockdale Leader Development Concentration (SLDC) course during the SLDC out brief onboard Naval Station Newport, May 13, 2026. The SLDC cohort addressed the challenges of U.S. Navy O-6 leader development by examining the competencies required for effective leadership at the O-6 level and beyond. Established in 1884, NWC informs today’s decision-makers and educates tomorrow’s leaders by providing educational experiences and learning opportunities that develop their ability to anticipate and prepare strategically for the future, strengthen the foundations of peace, and create a decisive warfighting advantage.
