 Welcome to All Hands Update, I'm Petty Officer Ian Cotter. CNO and the Navy Warfare Development Command, or NWDC, are inviting junior officers and enlisted leaders to apply for the 2015 CNO Rapid Innovation Cell, or CRIC. The project was established in 2012 to encourage innovative thinking and develop prototypes that can be rapidly transitioned to the fleet. The Ghost Swimmer Unmanned Underwater Vehicle and the Google Glass Headset are projects that were developed from previous CRIC participants. CRIC is a collateral duty and allows volunteers from all Navy communities to participate without geographic relocation or release from current duty assignment. Participants may not have current PCS orders to see duty or reach their end of active obligated service prior to September 2017. Applications are being accepted until January 31. For more information, visit the CRIC Facebook page or the NWDC website.
