Rear Admiral Chatfield is a historic choice for The Naval War College. She is the embodiment of the type of warrior-scholar we need now to lead this storied institution as it educates our next generation of leaders, as our Education for Seapower( E4S) Study noted, our capacity for critical thinking in an age of increasing complexity will be our most important strategic advantage. Rear Admiral Chatfield will play a pivotal role in leading The Naval War College as The Naval War College integrates into the new Naval University system we are now establishing to foster a culture of continuous learning in the naval services.
