New chiefs honored during ceremony

Chief Hospital Corpsman (SW) Dawn Calhoun salutes as she is piped aboard Sept. 16 during the chief’s pinning ceremony held aboard the USS Yorktown in Charleston, S.C.  Calhoun was among 15 area First Class Petty Officers promoted to the rank of E-7. During the ceremony, the chiefs’ anchors were pinned by friends and family members, and after officially becoming chiefs, they recited the Chief’s Creed.

On July 26, E-7 results were announced and the Lowcountry chief selectees were among 3,891 first class petty officers to earn their anchors. Charleston area new chiefs were from Naval Weapons Station Charleston, Naval Hospital Charleston, the Naval Consolidated Brig, The Citadel and Explosive Ordnance Disposal Mobile Unit Six.
