🌟🇺🇸Promotion Alert! Today we proudly frocked, or promoted, two first class petty officers to their current rank. Please join us in congratulating Yeoman 1st Class Isiah Alvidrez and Operations Specialist 1st Class Wilbur Theis. 🪡 During the ceremony, Sailors brought back the Naval tradition of "tacking on the crow," which involves Sailors taking turns sewing a stitch onto the rank tab of a newly-advanced petty officer’s uniform, representing the equality of the new rank and the support offered to the petty officer. A frocking ceremony is a significant event in a Sailor's career that gives them the authority and responsibility of a higher rank before their official promotion.
