Richardson relieves Greenert as CNO From Chief of Naval Operations Public Affairs

Adm. John Richardson relieved Adm. Jonathan Greenert as the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) in a ceremony, Sept. 18, at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md. Richardson became the 31st CNO, the Navy’s most senior officer and, as a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a principle advisor to the Secretary of the Navy, Secretary of the Defense and the President. “We are here today to mark the change of command in one of the most storied, most historic and iconic posts in our military or any military-the Chief of Naval Operations,” Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus, said. “This job has been held by Leahy and King and Nimitz and Burke and Zumwaltthe very title implies action. It’s the Chief of Naval Operations.” Mabus added, “It is fitting that this ceremony takes place here at the Naval Academy, where the Navy legacy and legend for both our outgoing and incoming CNO began.” Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Adm.

From NSA Naples Emergency Management Team

Since your arrival here and throughout this month you have hopefully been hearing and reading about the hazards we may experience during our assignment in bella Napoli, and those actions you can take to prepare you and your family. Throughout the month of September the Emergency Management Team has been talking about what to do during an active shooter installation lockdown, building an emergency kit, what to do during flooding events and power outages and other emergency situations. While there has been a lot of focus on disaster preparedness this month, this is and should be an ongoing process for each of us. To assist you in your efforts to prepare, NSA Naples Emergency Management is partnering with the American Red Cross, DeCA (Defense Commissary Agency), Navy Exchange and U.S. Naval Hospital Naples to provide you with information and guidance on how you can best prepare yourself and family for a disaster. We will be doing this in conjunction with the Town Hall Meeting on September 29 (6 to 8 p.m. at the Base Theater, Support Site), and on September 30, where we will have an emergency preparedness information
