The bio credits her with a tour as nuke officer on a carrier. Classically, this would have been her “major surface vessel command” prior to taking command of one the 12 nuclearvaircraft carriers.
The nation, and the Navy, may have been saved a major disaster by kicking her out now.
SWOs don’t get carrier commands - only Airdales...as a former SWO and OOD on the Independence, it was an irritating fact, but true.
No wings on her uniform, only the SFO badge. Then Navy has been selecting people in their “Aviator to Carrier Captain” pipeline for quite awhile now. That’s how the other woman who’s now commanding a carrier made it.
“reactor officer” , which means she could find it,
no mention of nuc pwr school.
“major surface vessel command” ,? ummm no
