Prospective commanding officer
Appearance
A prospective commanding officer (PCO) is a United States naval officer who has been selected for his/her own command. The term is used in correspondence or in reference to the officer before they assume command of the unit (ship, squadron, unit, etc.). The novel Surface and Destroy by Michael Sturma has detailed accounts of PCOs and their experience in unrestricted submarine warfare. [1]
