Rear Admiral Stephen Barnett

"Rear Adm. Stephen Barnett will assume command of Navy Region Southwest at a ceremony Friday at Naval Air Station North Island, the Navy said in a statement. He most recently served as the commander of Navy Region Northwest in Kitsap, Wash. and was the commanding officer of Naval Base Coronado from 2015 to 2016." "Barnett served as a naval flight officer on P-3 Orions, the Navy’s land-based anti-submarine and surveillance aircraft. He’s served as commanding officer of one P-3 squadron and has since worked as an analyst for the Navy at the Pentagon and as the executive assistant to the Vice Chief of Naval Operations, according to his Navy biography." [1]

The position is often described as the "Navy Mayor of San Diego". He replaces Read Adm. Bette Bolivar, who is retiring.

Rear Admiral Bette Bolivar

"During her Navy career, Bolivar, a 1985 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, served as a Navy diver and salvage ship commander. Since taking command in San Diego in 2019, Bolivar found herself at the crossroads of military service and politics when she was named the convening authority overseeing the war crimes court-martial of Navy SEAL Chief Eddie Gallagher." "Bolivar also led the region’s 10 Navy bases through restrictions brought on by the coronavirus pandemic.

The admiral’s career was not without controversy. Bolivar, like hundreds of Navy officers of her generation, was embroiled in the Fat Leonard scandal, the Union-Tribune first reported in 2019. In 1998, as the commanding officer of the salvage ship Salvor, Bolivar — who held the rank of lieutenant commander at the time — accepted a hotel room, dinner, drinks, entertainment and a golf outing in Malaysia by Leonard Glenn “Fat Leonard” Francis, according to Navy records. The Navy addressed Bolivar’s alleged misconduct through “administrative action” and otherwise deemed her a “significant contributor and valued Navy leader,” according to a 2017 memo from Adm. Philip Davidson, who was leading the Navy’s “Fat Leonard” investigation at the time. Bolivar is one of hundreds of naval officers investigated by the Navy for connections to Francis, who was arrested in San Diego in 2013 for defrauding the Navy out of at least $34 million in ship husbanding fees in the Western Pacific and Indian Oceans. Although he pleaded guilty, Francis has not been sentenced in the case."[2]
