About David Walston

With over two decades of distinguished service in the U.S. Navy, I developed expertise in aviation, leadership, and operational planning. My most recent role as a CWMD Planner at USSOCOM involved contributing to strategic initiatives over a three-year period, while earlier responsibilities as NAVCENT Deputy Chief of Staff focused on overseeing critical staff functions for U.S. Naval Central Command and FIFTH Fleet. Throughout my career, I have prioritized fostering collaboration and advancing mission-critical objectives in high-stakes defense environments. I remain committed to utilizing my diverse expertise to support organizational goals and create impactful solutions in complex operational contexts.
