LDO/CWO Program History
• 13 December 1775: Warrant Officer created by the Continental Congress; one of the oldest Navy commissioning sources.
• 1910: Congress authorized the annual promotion of ten Warrant Officers to the rank of Ensign.
• Prior to World War II: As technically-oriented officers who perform duties limited to specific occupational fields and require strong managerial skills, LDOs could advance to Lieutenant.
• 1948: The Limited Duty Officer program was established under the Officer Personnel Act as a relatively small group of officers that retained their specialties acquired as enlisted men and Warrant Officers.
• 1957: all initial LDO appointments were temporary appointments under Title 10 USC, Section 5596.
• 5 December 1974: CNO study conducted under the sponsorship of Bureau of Naval Personnel Career Planning Board established
– Retention of LDO and CWO programs, but functional role definitions developed separately for each.
– Separate LDO and CWO community billet structures.
– Realignment of LDO and CWO designators and categories, warfare community identification, and centralized management.
– New procurement and appointment procedures to provide separate paths to LDO or CWO.
• 1985: Congress lifted the "0-5 cap", authorizing LDO promotions to Captain. The first LDO captain was promoted in 1986.
• 1991: Warrant Officer Management Act of 1991 authorized the grade of CWO5.
• Today: LDOs and CWOs serve as Division Officers, Department Heads, Officer-in-Charge, Executive Officers and Commanding Officers afloat or ashore. LDO’s do not typically serve as Commanding Officers afloat.
