Up and coming Information Warfare Officer rock star?

LTJG Stamm and Mario Vulcano
There is no shortage of bright, well-educated, highly motivated, athletic, forward-thinking, energetic, and young talent in the Information Dominance Corps.  We are fortunate to get our new talent from a variety of commissioning sources and from the other warfare communities.  LTJG Stephanie Stamm is one such officer.  A former Surface Warfare Officer (SWO), LTJG Stamm recently completed the Information Warfare Basic Course (IWBC) with perfect scores across the board.  She is the first officer to do this in recent memory.  (If you know someone else has done this, please let Mario Vulcano know).  In my three years as Director of Training for the Navy's cryptologic schoolhouse from 2000 - 2003, no one achieved this significant milestone.  

Congratulations LTJG Stamm.  Great job.  I am sure you will make a difference for your Shipmates at Navy Information Operations Command Maryland.  BZ!

    Not to mention that the IDC has an enlisted force that is smart as can be.

    She is very sharp. Very professional officer. You can tell she has been tempered by her SWO experience.

    I aced the course when it was CDOC. Of course, I created CDOC. :-)

    Hear hear, NIOC CMC! In the past year, 29 sailors have graduated from DLI with 4.0 GPAs and over 120 have earned AA degrees in addition to graduating from DLI. very impressive I think.

    Having worked directly with her in the past (when she was a SWO) I'm not surprised at all by this post. She's a very impressive officer and will excel in the IW community not because of her time as a SWO, but in spite of it - an attitude the IDC as a whole should embrace!

    I had three students ace the 19 week CDOC course back in the 95/96

    very impressive

    Lets not forget our major workforce our enlisted "A" and "C" schools are graduating sailors all the time achieving excellence of 100.

    Who were they?

    I aced the course in 2007 but no one made a fuss for me. I made LT on time and still waiting for LCDR.
