HM-14 was awarded the Battle E by RADM Meier for the second year in a row. The hard work and dedication of our sailors has demonstrated once again why we are the “World Famous”Vanguard! Hooyah, HM-14!
The Battle “E” award recognizes crews with high levels of sustained proficiency and readiness to perform in an operational environment throughout a year-long evaluation.
At the Vanguard Town Hall last week, HM-14 was able to recognize the incredible effort put forth by our sailors. Congratulations to our Sailor of the Quarter, Bluejacket of the Quarter, and Navy Achievement Medal recipients on a job well done!

Over the past month, both squadrons flew a combined 250+ hours in support of the international MCM component of RIMPAC based in San Diego, California. Working with seven partner nations, the Vanguard and Blackhawk sailors consistently demonstrated the ability to respond to rapid tasking and requests for AMCM assets.

As Women's History Month draws to a close, we would like to recognize all of the incredible women who contribute to the successes of the Vanguard and our country. These women exemplify the Navy core values of honor, courage, and commitment on a daily basis. This past month, HM-14 had the honor of hosting LCDR Karen Thornton, a retired CH-46 pilot, who shared her experiences as a member of the first class of female naval aviatiors at our Women's History Month round table. Thank you to all of the women who have served and continue to serve!
Today we celebrate the 129th birthday of the rank of Chief Petty Officer. The importance of the Chiefs Mess cannot be stressed enough, their deckplate leadership, technical expertise, and ownership helps make our U.S. Navy the world's finest fighting force.
