Chief
Chief is Potomac River's shop Safety Inspector and Morale Officer. He is always up for any adventure and just wants to be part of the Team. Wherever you are going, Chief is going. For Chief, every day is "the greatest day ever" but his favorite days are when he gets to play with his buddies, Cane, Shadow, Bruce, Rocky and Dexter.
Chief is named after the Senior Enlisted Leaders in the Navy. The Officers get all the attention but it is the Chiefs who are the backbone of the Navy and make everything happen.
