Bridgeport sailor promoted to chief petty officer

NORFOLK, VA — Navy Chief Boatswain’s Mate Vance Hudson of Bridgeport, was promoted to chief petty officer, an accomplishment that only one in five eligible sailors achieve each year. The Navy made the announcement on Tuesday. Hudson, a 2000 J.M. Wright Tech School graduate, is serving with Port Operations, Naval Station Norfolk. “Selection to chief means I am considered to be a leader, expert and I am committed to something bigger than me,” said Hudson. Achieving the title of “Navy Chief” is a major honor and milestone. Only 8.5 percent of sailors currently serving at the chief petty officer rank.
