Commander Carlton Bennett III retired Friday, June 12, after more than 38 years of service in the United States Navy, ending his career aboard Navy Medicine Readiness and Training Command Cherry Point. Bennett joined the Navy enlisted during a time when nearly every department on a Navy ship had a VCR and used typewriters and ended his career as a Nurse integrating advanced patient-facing health technologies to improve nursing workflow and patient safety. “Success in the Navy is a long game. You must have patience, work hard, and become exceptionally good at your job,” said Bennett during his retirement ceremony. “Then, take advantage of opportunities that allow you to shine.”
