COMNAVSECGRU Achievement Number 4

Short Title: Selection of officers for key command assignments.

Date/Place: 1987. Staff Washington DC

Problem or situation:

Too many commanding officers were falling short of standards for command. The selection responsibility rested with the Chief of Naval Personnel (CNP).

Actions:

CNSG convinced USN hierarchy that the process should be its responsibility. CNSG would be better able to assess command candidates by assembling a small number of trusted 1610 seniors who could better factor important considerations based on longer exposure/experience. CNSG would forward its recommendations to CNP for approval.

Results:

CNSG developed the best leadership in the history of its existence.
