Lent, who was serving as Navy League Council President. The first awardee was the Ohio-class ballistic missile submarine USS Michigan (SSBN 727). The area of critique include weapons system performance and readiness, navigation performance and practices, communication system performance, material condition and engineering readiness, personnel readiness, initiative in promoting new operational concepts, and tactical readiness.
