Prospective Commanding Officers for the MK VI Patrol Boats

Last year, U.S. Navy Surface Warfare Officers (SWOs) learned of two new and exciting opportunities in the Coastal Riverine Force. Junior SWOs on track to successfully complete their second division officer tours can screen for command-at-sea billets as Mark VI Patrol Boat commanders while department heads requesting to screen for command early can now be slated as a Mark VI company commander, commanding three of the boats. Following in the footsteps of the PT boats of World War II and the Riverines in Vietnam, SWOs now have a cutting edge platform and new opportunities for small unit leadership.  The first screening board is complete, and before these officers embark on a training pipeline to become one step closer to assuming MK VI command, they're sharing what drew them to this one-of-a-kind opportunity.
