This R.E.D. Friday, we honor retired Navy Master Chief Special Warfare Operator Britt Slabinski, a Navy SEAL and Medal of Honor recipient. “The Chief” recognizes all past and present Navy chief petty officers—a tradition of leadership and service Slabinski exemplifies. On March 4, 2002, during Operation Anaconda in Afghanistan, he led his team onto enemy-held Takur Ghar to rescue a stranded teammate, later carrying a wounded teammate through deep snow and fighting for 14 hours until extraction. Awarded the Medal of Honor in 2018, his courage and devotion to his teammates embody the highest traditions of military service.
