NIP Members Join COMONI for Social in Hampton Roads

Several NIP members gathered with others at The Grain in Norfolk, Virginia, on Thursday, 25 July, for a no-host social in honor of COMONI Rear Admiral Michael Brookes’ visit to the area. The Deputy Commander of ONI, Mr. Andrew Richardson, and RADM Brookes’ wife Wendy were also there in addition to RDML Josh Himes and Hampton Roads chapter president John “JD” Dullum. It was fun, casual opportunity and perfect setting for Naval Intelligence professionals, both local and from out of town, to catch up ahead of the next day’s retirement and change of command for IBoss Vice Admiral Kelly Aeschbach.
