Admiral Stavridis take the lead at USNI. Here's a selection from his huge corpus of writing.

Admiral Stavridis selected to take the lead at USNI upon retirement. Here's a selection from his huge corpus of writing.



When I first met Lieutenant Commander James Stavridis in 1989, I
ADM Stavridis, SOUTHCOM Commander
had no idea that one day he would be the gold standard for what the U.S. Naval Institute is all about. Since he was a midshipman at the Naval Academy, he has been a faithful and thoughtful member of this professional society, and the depth and breadth of what he has written for the open forum—while remarkably still managing to rise steadily in the ranks to a four-star admiral—is unprecedented. I remember when he visited our headquarters in Beach Hall soon after he earned his first star and I greeted him as "admiral." Instantly, his reply was, "C'mon, Fred. In this family, I'll always be Jim." Family indeed. As we watch for Admiral Jim's next career move, his fellow family members are all proud to say we knew him when. We hope you enjoy this sentimental journey in words that spans his entire distinguished Navy career.
-Fred Schultz, Managing Editor, Proceeding
