proudly congratulates the newly minted Sailors of U.S. Navy Recruit Training Command Training Group 26 on their well-earned Boot Camp graduation at Naval Station Great Lakes, Ill.

Director Omar Lopez joined as the guest of honor, along with Rear Adm. Mark Behning, Acting Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Warfighting Requirements and Capabilities, in recognizing the distinguished honor graduates for their achievements during their training.

As these new Sailors embark on the next chapter of their careers, we recognize their commitment to service and wish them continued success as they join the fleet.

NCIS involvement at Navy Recruit Training Command (RTC) is a critical component of Force Protection and Force Preservation. Because RTC is the U.S. Navy’s only enlisted accession point, safeguarding this installation ensures the uninterrupted flow of trained warfighters to the fleet. Protecting this pipeline directly underpins global operational readiness, counterintelligence posture, and overall maritime security.

To that end, NCIS Resident Agency Great Lakes and the Naval Station Great Lakes Security Department work in close coordination to ensure that distinguished guests and loved ones may safely witness these long-held Naval traditions during the recruit graduation ceremony.

NCIS remains proud to serve alongside and protect these new warriors.

Bravo Zulu, TG-26!

This major operational success—spearheaded by NCIS Resident Agency (NCISRA) Great Lakes in seamless coordination with federal prosecutors—reaffirmed our mutual commitment to forward-leaning, collaborative engagement. Together, NCIS and the USAO continue to provide robust investigative and prosecutorial support to protect vulnerable victims, ensure the safety of Department of the Navy warfighters and their families, and safeguard the greater Chicago community.

Director Omar Lopez recently congratulated and delivered remarks to the newest graduates of the Special Agent Basic Training (SABT) program at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers in Georgia.

These agents will soon report to assignments around the globe, responding to the Secretary of the Navy’s priority of taking care of Sailors and Marines by protecting families from ruthless criminal elements while simultaneously protecting critical Department of the Navy shipbuilding technologies and contributing to Secretary of War priorities of eliminating narcotics trafficking and deterring human trafficking and smuggling from occurring.

“I want you to remember that you are not just taking on a new job,” said Director Lopez. “Rather, you are stepping into an honored tradition built by generations of agents before you—a legacy of courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to protecting our nation and its values. These are the very values that you have honed and sharpened during your training at the academy.”

The SABT course is the foundation of an NCIS special agent’s career, combining classroom instruction with practical field exercises to ensure mission readiness from day one. Members of SABT Class #2601 are on their way to duty stations around the world; combatting Designated Terrorist Organizations, countering national security threats and protecting Sailors, Marines, and their families.

Congrats to SABT Class #2601!

Jasen Butler, the owner of Independent Marine Oil Services, LLC, was recently sentenced in federal court to five years in prison after being found guilty of orchestrating a scheme to defraud the U.S. Department of War and other federal agencies out of over $5 million. Butler’s convictions include wire fraud, money laundering, and forgery.

Between August 2022 and January 2024, Butler submitted dozens of falsified wire transfer documents and altered and fake invoices to U.S. Navy and Coast Guard ships through the SEA Card Program, which allows U.S. vessels to purchase critical fuel to conduct military operations around the world. The ships were attempting to purchase fuel in international ports like Saudi Arabia, Singapore, and Croatia to defend strategic American interests around the globe.

Butler attempted to avoid detection by adopting a false name and feigning employment with a fictitious fuel division of a different company. With his fraudulently obtained funds, Butler purchased multiple multi-million-dollar properties in Florida and Colorado.

“The sentencing of Jasen Butler sends the unequivocal message that the Department of the Navy has zero tolerance for fraud within its procurement systems,” said Special Agent in Charge Greg Gross of the NCIS Economic Crimes Field Office. “The SEA Card program is indispensable to the U.S. Navy's global readiness. NCIS, along with our federal partners, are committed to aggressively dismantling any criminal enterprise that attempts to exploit systems designed to enable U.S. warfighting capabilities around the globe.”
