Before I see that the number is 22 I read the description of this stop and say to David "If I was on the ship I totally would be the Command Master Chief". Let me give you the job description: "The CMC is the Captain's special assistant in charge of monitoring the morale and job satisfaction of the enlisted crew. Though his office was here, the CMC spends most of his time roaming the ship, talking to the crew and assessing their state of mind" It goes on to say that the CMC is also in charge of process improvement. Imagine how excited I was when 2 minutes later I discovered that this was stop number 22!!!!!!! WOW, coincidence? I think not!
How perfect is it that for the number "24" we find the Bomb Elevator? I looked down and tried to find Jack but he was not there. (Speaking of 24, this weeks episode was terrible. I certainly hope that next year it returns to normal. The season finale next week looks as ridiculous as the rest of the season)
The Chief Petty Officer (#25) is known as the backbone of the Navy. Unlike other ranks, advancement to CPO carries not only the requirements of superior evaluations and examinations but also includes a peer review by other CPO's. In a way, CPO's are elected to their position. Advancement to Chief Petty Officer is the most significant promotion within Navy enlisted ranks. The CPO's are so important that they have their own dining room. It is also important to know that the CPO is usually the smartest officer on the ship.

I have always said the Navy is awesome!
Where's 23?
23 isn't a favorite ;)
this is so terrible... if we were both in the Navy, we could not be stationed on the same ship because I would want to be the CMC, too! First because of the job description, and second because it's #22!
