Capt. Kyle Higgins, USS Dwight D. Eisenhower’s commanding officer, congratulated the Sailors.
“I want these Sailors to understand their leadership position,” said Higgins. “My advice to all who were advanced is to keep performing. You can never rest where we are; it’s always where we’re going.”
Anderson said she was humbled to be selected.
“I am truly honored and greatly appreciate the support from my chain of command in submitting me for advancement,” she said.
