Gumm, makes his welcome remarks as the new 1st Special Forces Group (Airborne) Command Chief Warrant Officer, during a formal Change of Responsibility at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Washington, June 17, 2026. Special operations warrant officers serve as elite, career subject matter experts, bridging the gap between enlisted operators and commissioned commanders. They specialize in unconventional warfare, intelligence fusion, and operational planning.
