Fair Winds and Following Seas Admiral Lisa Franchetti
Your legacy deserves more than a "Thank you for your service."
For those of us who grew up in wardrooms, SCIFs and commands where women were few and far between, you are proof that we could do more, be more, and expect more.
Your impact will carry forward in every leader you've mentored, every Sailor you've inspired, and every one of us who watched and thought, because of her, I can too.
You may be shifting course, but your wake will be felt for generations.
Go Navy!

Lauren Friedman - Ma’am, I wish I had the opportunity to serve with you. When you became CNO I wondered if I had made a mistake getting out when I did. I decided to be an excellent leader no matter where I am in your honor. Your legacy will be long and honorable. Thank you.

Janelle - Ma’am, I am so glad I got to see you on the main stage at JWLS. Your CNO’s top 7 are saved in my phone and I review them to try to lead using them.
