You have to understand where Officers stand in the Navy/Marine Corps...there is no NCO Corps in those services with the authority that NCO's have in the US Army and especially in SF.
I did not get this until I was CSM of a Joint Unit...even SEALs don't get our position.
They still have separate beach's at R&R Naval facilities...enlisted/Warrant/O's...you do not mix.

You should visit a Navy ship sometime and compare the enlisted galley with the officer wardroom. Utilitarian galley for the enlisted and proper plates, table clothes, silver for the officers.
I had no clue until I joined how segregated the enlisted were from officers. It really is an artifact of the old British royalty influence. They are treated as two totally different classes.
