Navy chief who's proud to be a chief wears chief T-shirt that says so
NORFOLK, Va. — After a long day of work on the ship, there is nothing that Navy Chief Petty Officer Roy Lopez enjoys more than shedding his Chief uniform, throwing on a matching Chief t-shirt and mesh shorts, then hopping into his Chief sticker-covered Ford F-150 truck to go and do Chief things, sources confirmed this morning.
"What can I say? I'm proud to be a Chief," says Lopez, whose arms are covered with Chief anchor tattoos.
In 2004, Lopez put on the rank of Chief, or E-7 in the Navy, and has never been seen in public since then without wearing something that doesn't declare his rank or his membership in the "Goat Locker."
