⚓ NHTP Chief Petty Officer Pinning Ceremony ⚓

Today, Naval Hospital Twentynine Palms proudly celebrated the FY26 Chief Petty Officer Pinning Ceremony, honoring HMC Beejay L. Topacio as he joined the ranks of the Navy’s senior enlisted leaders. This milestone, rich in tradition and meaning, signified his transition into a role of greater responsibility, mentorship, and service.

Becoming a Chief represents more than just wearing anchors—it demands a higher standard of conduct, unquestionable integrity, and a commitment to lead by example in every aspect of Navy life. With this advancement comes the expectation to guide others and uphold the trust placed in the Mess.

We are proud to welcome Chief Topacio into the Mess, where he will continue to lead, mentor, and serve with honor, courage, and commitment.

Anchors Aweigh!
