	Chief Petty Officer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Chief Petty Officers serve a dual role as both technical experts and as leaders, with the emphasis being more on leadership as they progress through the CPO ranks.
		Collectively, officers and chiefs are referred to as "khakis." This is a reference to the color of their most common shipboard "working" uniforms, and is a direct contrast to those in paygrades E-6 and below (or, blueshirts).
		Chief, Senior Chief and Master Chief Petty Officers can only be punitively reduced in rank following conviction by a court martial, and is the only enlisted rank in any of the military branches where the member is appointed to that rank.

		They exist because for over 200 years the Chiefs before you have freely accepted responsibility beyond call of printed assignment and have, by their actions and performance, commanded the respect of their seniors as well as their juniors.
		Ask the Chief is a household phrase, both in and out of the Navy.
		You were subjected to humiliation to prove to you that humility is a good, a great, a necessary attribute which cannot mar you, in fact, it strengthens you and, in your future as a Chief Petty Officer, you will be caused to suffer indignities, to experience humiliation far beyond those imposed upon you today.
