  1. Navy Policy, Guidelines and Official Statements

    This forum covers Bupers & NPC AlNavs and NavAdmins messages that have been released by the Navy regarding policies, guidelines and other official statements. This might be some good read for career minded Sailors who should be aware of official Navy policies. Most posts will come from NPC's AlNavs and NavAdmins as well as the official Navy.mil website but not all information is generated from those sources. As can been seen by the views, many enlisted Sailors visit this area to get caught up on official releases.
