  1. The military failed to keep up with the mushrooming number of measures that Congress has required the armed services to implement to address sexual assault, a government watchdog revealed. As of October 2021, the Defense Department had not fully implemented 18% of the nearly 200 unique requirements imposed in legislation since 2004, the Government Accountability Office found in a report published this week.
  2. THE PENTAGON – The nine Freedom-class Littoral Combat Ships currently in Navy service – the youngest of which commissioned in 2020 – have been marked for disposal as part of the Department of Defense’s Fiscal Year 2023 budget proposal, USNI News has learned. The ships – USS Fort Worth (LCS-3), USS Milwaukee (LCS-5), USS Detroit (LCS-7), USS Little Rock (LCS-9), USS Sioux City (LCS-11), USS Wichita (LCS-13), USS Billings (LCS-15) and USS St. Louis (LCS-19) – are part of the 24 ships the service has chosen to decommission in FY 2023 for an estimated $3.6 billion in savings.
  3. Alrighty then, 11 EST is passed and gone...
  4. On Friday afternoon, the Supreme Court froze an injunction that would have required the Navy to deploy SEALs who refuse to get vaccinated against COVID-19. The decision suggests that SCOTUS has little patience for lower courts’ efforts to seize authority from the armed forces by inserting themselves into the chain of command. One such recent ruling barred the Navy from reassigning the commanding officer of a guided-missile destroyer, an anti-vaxxer who repeatedly defied lawful orders and recklessly exposed dozens to the virus. High-ranking military officials testified that decisions like these undermined military readiness and threatened national security.

  6. WASHINGTON — The U.S. Navy wants to buy one last San Antonio-class amphibious ship and then end the production line, the service announced in its fiscal 2023 budget request. The LPD-17 class got off to a rough start in its construction, but transformed into a model acquisition program and a workhorse of the fleet. These ships, built at Ingalls Shipbuilding in Mississippi, haul Marines and their gear as part of amphibious ready group/Marine expeditionary unit (ARG/MEU) formations.
  7. QUANTICO, Va. - The U.S. Naval Community College extended the deadline for applications to the associate of arts in Military Studies and the associate of science in Nuclear Engineering Technology programs to Apr. 17, 2022. This gives more opportunity for active duty enlisted Sailors, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen and Coast Guard Reservists to apply to one of these two degree programs. “We want to ensure the maximum opportunity for application into these programs while still having the time to review applicants for eligibility into the program, receiving command approval, and enrolling into the partner institution,” said USNCC’s director of enrollment Alphonso Garrett. “Through ongoing discussions with our partner institutions, we have developed a process to shorten that timeline to enrollment, which means there is more opportunity for Sailors, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen to apply for one of these two programs.” Those that applied to either degree program by the original deadline of Mar. 27, 2022, will have their applications reviewed and a decision made by Apr. 17. Those that apply between Mar. 27 and Apr. 17 will have their applications reviewed and a decision made in May. “We anticipate that some applicants may not be able to commit to enrolling in June due to operational tempo and life commitments,” said Garrett. “We still want to provide the opportunity to service members that may be ready to start their journey of lifelong learning.” This means that the decision-making process would be a rolling process until all of the available seats are filled with eligible and approved candidates. “The last thing we want is to have an opportunity for a deserving service member seeking a naval relevant education to go unfulfilled,” said Sgt. Maj. Mike Hensley, USNCC’s command senior enlisted leader. “These educational opportunities support the warfighting capability and operational readiness our naval forces need to maintain a competitive edge over our potential adversaries.” Active duty enlisted Sailors, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen and Coast Guard Reservists can fill out an application for the Military Studies and Nuclear Engineering Technology associate degree programs on the USNCC website, www.usncc.edu. The first courses will start in June 2022. The United States Naval Community College is the official community college for the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard.

  8. The Navy can now reassign 36 members of the Special Warfare community who are unvaccinated against COVID-19, the Supreme Court ruled Friday. The Supreme Court granted a partial stay of a preliminary injunction that prevented the Navy from dismissing or reassigning the SEALs and the other members of the Special Warfare community involved in the lawsuit. The Navy still cannot separate the SEALs, but it can assign them to non-deployable positions, which is what the sea service has done for other sailors who have exemptions for the vaccine.

  10. WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday granted a request by President Joe Biden's administration to let the Navy decline to deploy SEALs and other special operations forces personnel who refused mandatory COVID-19 vaccination due to religious objections.
  11. On March 1, the US Navy said its newest carrier, USS Gerald R. Ford, had completed its first planned incremental availability, a six-month modernization and maintenance process intended to give the carrier its final touches before its first deployment. Ford entered its PIA after completing full-ship shock trials last summer. Those trials involved detonating three 40,000-pound explosives in the water around Ford. They marked the first such tests the Navy has conducted on a carrier since 1987.
  12. The Navy is clear to decommission five Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruisers following the passage of the Fiscal Year 2022 defense appropriations bill, USNI News understands. The overdue spending bill follows the FY 2022 defense policy bill and allows the Navy to decommission five of the seven cruisers originally requested as part of the White House’s budget request.
  13. By gosh I think you're right but I'm just the messenger. The one's I posted on 3/22/22 are from MYNavyHR as well. There are usually 2 versions floating around where one includes the opportunity (opp) %. The copy you have has a date of 3/4/22 on it. When did you get it? There could have been an update since then. Thanks for pointing that out. I like to see the "behind the scenes" happenings.

  16. The Navy separated 75 sailors last week, bringing the total number of separations over refusal to get vaccinated against COVID-19 to 544. Of the separations, 519 were active-duty sailors who have served more than 180 days, 22 were sailors in their first 180 days and three are reservists, according to the Navy’s weekly COVID-19 update, which publishes Wednesdays. Of the branches, the Navy has the second-most separations behind the Marine Corps. As of March 16, 1,174 Marines were separated due to refusal to get vaccinated against COVID-19, an increase of 136 since March 9.
  17. ALNAVRESFOR 09/22 was released on February 22, 2022 and aims to support and retain the Reserve warfighter. The message grants current SELRES NAVET Sailors the opportunity to apply for reversion to their prior-service rating. In other words, Sailors who dropped out of compliance for their rating conversion may be able to revert to their prior rating. The intent behind this policy is to allow motivated Sailors to continue service in the Navy Reserve despite their inability to attend training or complete their aforementioned rating requirements. CNR needs our Reserve Sailors deployable and ready to fight. Reverting them into a rating that they have experience and proficiency with is an opportunity to retain talented deployable assets! For our Navy Reserve Activities, Readiness Units, and Operational Units, take the time with your CCCs to determine how many Sailors are past 18 months in their conversion program who have not completed rate conversion requirements or who have yet to pass the exam. If applicable, and interested, work with them revert to a rate where they can contribute to warfighting readiness and compete for advancement. This recent opportunity will not be available in perpetuity but does offer a reprieve from the challenges of the last 24 months that may have impacted our Sailors’ ability to be ready on day one. Background In April of 2021, Commander, Navy Reserve Force, Vice Admiral Mustin, established guidance prioritizing mobilization readiness as a basis for Warfighting Readiness. COMNAVRESFORNOTE 3060 provides a supplemental policy that consolidated the common showstoppers for mobilization, particularly during a mass (distributed) activation scenario. It charged Reserve Unit leadership with tracking and reporting short notice mobilization requirements such as current Service members’ Group Life Insurance (SGLI), family care plan, uniforms, and more. Many Sailors have tackled the requirements specified in COMNAVRESFORNOTE 3060 but are still not ready to mobilize. These are the Sailors who agreed to a rating conversion as part of their affiliation into the Reserves but have yet to make their new rate “permanent”. Enlisted Sailors affiliate with the Navy Reserve in one of three categories – fully trained, not previously trained, and partially trained. Fully trained Sailors are those who transition seamlessly into the drilling Reserve from active component to Selected Reserve (AC2SELRES), or are recruited in-rate with only a slight break in participation in the Navy. These Sailors arrive seamlessly on day one with the in-rate knowledge required to fight. Not previously trained Sailors enter the Navy through Recruit Training Command – “boot camp” - as New Accession Trainees (NAT). Their first several months in the Navy are spent in an initial active-duty training pipeline (i.e. boot camp, ‘A’ school, block learning, etc.) before reporting to their primary drill site for gain into the Selected Reserve (SELRES). These Sailors arrive with the training and in-rate knowledge to fight as an immediate asset to their mobilization unit. Partially trained Sailors are Navy Veterans (NAVET) and Other Service Veterans (OSVET) who wish to serve in a new capacity. Sailors who affiliate under the Prior Service Re-enlistment Eligibility – Reserve (PRISE-R) program, or who are approved for an AC2SELRES rating conversion, are considered partially trained. In January of this year, there were 801 partially trained Sailors in the Navy Reserve. These Sailors know the military, and are certainly enthusiastic warfighters, but lack the apprentice or journeyman level of expertise of their new rate. As part of their affiliation, these members sign an agreement to meet specific requirements for their new rating to become “permanent.” This may consist of block learning via ‘A’ or ‘C’ schools, but at a minimum, requires passing the Navy-wide Advancement Exam (NWAE). As an aside, most information warfare communities (IWC) also require an interim Top-Secret clearance in order to attend required training. Specific requirements for conversion to a new rating must be met within 18 months of gain to the SELRES. Partially trained Sailors are not considered deployable until these requirements are met and subsequently cannot mobilize. Additionally, E4-E6 Sailors under a conversion program cannot compete for advancement until they have made their rating permanent. Many partially trained Sailors fall out of program compliance by not meeting the deadline to make their rate permanent. Though extensions are possible through a waiver, they are not ideal for supporting warfighting readiness. Priority one on day one is warfighting readiness. COVID-19, travel restrictions, delays in application for clearance investigations, and training backlogs have all created challenges for Sailors to complete rate conversion requirements. Warfighting readiness starts with in-rate knowledge, and much like the items listed in COMNAVRESFORNOTE 3060, in-rate knowledge is in fact a showstopper to mobilize. We know CNR’s fighting instructions. We have our mobilization requirements. Successful conversion to a new rate supports both. If you are a partially trained Sailor, work with your CCC and your chain of command immediately to chart a path forward to mobilization readiness.

  19. UNCLASSIFIED ROUTINE R 182134Z MAR 22 MID200001587848U FM CNO WASHINGTON DC TO NAVADMIN INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC BT UNCLAS NAVADMIN 075/22 PASS TO OFFICE CODES: FM CNO WASHINGTON DC//N1// INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC//N1// MSGID/GENADMIN/CNO WASHINGTON DC/N1/MAR// SUBJ/GUIDANCE FOR CY-22 FULL SPEED AHEAD 3.0 TRAINING// REF/A/DOC/TF1N FINAL REPORT// AMPN/REF A IS TASK FORCE ONE NAVY FINAL REPORT// RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN provides guidance for Full Speed Ahead (FSA) 3.0 training and outlines the recommendations for completion and documentation. 2. Background. FSA 3.0 training builds on the previous courses in the FSA series with continued emphasis on character, competence, leadership, personal and organizational growth. It operationalizes the Culture of Excellence (COE) emphasizing the themes of toughness, trust and connectedness. As with its predecessors, FSA 3.0 training blends scenario-based videos with small group discussions led by command facilitators (CF) or other selected command personnel. 3. Purpose. The Navy has teams with great culture and great performance, but we also see examples of teams with poor culture and weak performance. The gap between our best and our worst performers is too great. To remain the worlds strongest Navy, we must consistently have strong performance. Reference (a) identified the need to have *open, honest and necessary conversations across our Navy* and that *these conversations are vital for our Navy team, as understanding and connection builds teamwork and teamwork builds trust.* FSA 3.0 training enables honest, humble and transparent discussion about current performance and challenges each of us to support others. FSA 3.0 training is designed to apply Navy problem- solving tools and best practices to create opportunities for our teams to progress. The training encourages critical thinking, compels respectful and collaborative discussion, inspires adherence to the Navy Core Values and champions a more complete integration of the core attributes and signature behaviors of the Navy. 4. Training Approach. FSA 3.0 training is discretionary training. While there is no Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV) mandate to conduct FSA 3.0 training, there is a strong anecdotal evidence that the training is both needed and wanted in the Fleet. As such, subordinate commands have the discretion to mandate FSA 3.0 training within their organizations. FSA 3.0 training consists of four (4), 60 to 90 minute modules. Each module is accompanied by facilitation guides for all hands audiences, or rank-specific audiences (Junior Sailors [E-1 through E-4], critical middle Sailors [E-5 through E-8, O-1 through O-4] and senior Sailors [E-9, O-5 and above]). Each module addresses themes and behaviors that are foundational to the Navy’s COE. Each module includes a realistic dramatized video vignette, a documentary video interview segment and facilitated discussion. Each of the four modules can be delivered as stand-alone training, but are most effective in succession as each module builds upon previous modules. Commands are encouraged to allow time between modules to allow for processing and reflection. The four FSA 3.0 training modules are: Module 1: Sailor Identity and Connectedness, Module 2: Trust and Fairness, Module 3: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and Module 4: Sailor Today, Sailor Tomorrow. 5. CF Selection and Training. Although formal certification is not required to deliver FSA 3.0 training, due to the nuanced nature of the discussion FSA 3.0 training elicits, commands are highly encouraged to use previously certified CF to deliver the training, or to send new CF to the FSA 3.0 Train- the-Trainer (TTT) course. There are no specified paygrade requirements for CF, however, all should be exemplary and dynamic command members who have the ability to actively engage Sailors while delivering the FSA 3.0 TTT course materials. Previously certified CF include those personnel who were certified for Bystander Intervention to the Fleet (BI2F-FY15), Chart the Course (CTC-FY16), FSA (FY17) or FSA 2.0 (FY18). Commands may run a report of their qualified CF using the NAVADMIN completions report for the course title NETC-FSA 2.0-CF- CERT in the Fleet Training Management Planning System (FLTMPS). This completion report will reflect all CF certified in fiscal year (FY) 2015, FY16 and FY17 under the prior courses CPPD-BI2F-CF-CERT, NETC-CTC-CF-CERT or NETC-FSA-CF-CERT. a. FSA 3.0 TTT Course. The 21st Century Sailor Office (OPNAV N17) staff will conduct CF training in each of the Navy regions throughout the remainder of FY22. The FSA 3.0 TTT course is designed as initial training for newly designated CF, refresher training for previously certified CF and TTT for the Regional Training Force discussed in subparagraph (b). A morning and afternoon session of the FSA 3.0 TTT course will be offered each day of training. Each session is limited to 30 participants. The FSA 3.0 TTT course is approximately 3 hours long. The FSA 3.0 TTT course schedule is: Naval Region Mid-AtlanticNorfolk, VA29-31 MAR Navy Region EURAFRCENTBahrain11-13 APR Navy Region SouthwestSan Diego, CA19-21 APR Navy Region NorthwestBremerton, WA26-28 APR Navy Region HawaiiPearl Harbor, HI10-12 MAY Navy Region SoutheastJacksonville, FL17-19 MAY Navy Region EURAFRCENTNaples24-26 MAY Navy Region JapanYokosuka, Japan15-17 JUN Navy Region KoreaKorea 21 JUN Navy Region MarianasNimitz Hill, Guam23-24 JUN Navy Region Mid-Atlantic Groton, CT28-30 JUN Navy District Washington Washington, DC12-14 JUL FSA 3.0 TTT course completion will be documented by OPNAV N17 facilitators in FLTMPS within 1-2 weeks of course completion, as *Full Speed Ahead (FSA) 3.0 Command Facilitator Certification (FSA-3.0-CF- CERT).* b. Regional Training Force. FSA 3.0 training is an enduring training and discussion platform. While many commands will execute the training straightaway, others may wait for a pause in operations tempo to execute. Accordingly, OPNAV N17 instructors will train a regional training force, leveraging echelon II-IV subject matter experts. Once trained, the regional training force will be empowered to conduct CF training for echelon V commands in their region. Navy regions should work with base commanders to identify individuals for the Regional Training Force leveraging command climate specialists, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Practitioners, Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Officers, Religious Ministry Teams and other COE/command resilience team members. c. Additionally, on the afternoon of the first training day in each region, OPNAV N17 will host an O6 or GS15-led informational session for command triads and other interested leadership to discuss COE-related topics and initiatives. d. Region Point of Contact (POC). Regional commanders shall identify and appoint a local POC to assist OPNAV N17 personnel with registration and logistical coordination to include reserving suitable classroom space and ensuring audio and video capabilities. Once appointed, the POC should work with base commanders in order to ensure widest dissemination to tenant commands to include amplifying registration and logistical information. 6. Training Delivery. CF will deliver FSA 3.0 training as small group, face-to-face discussions. FSA 3.0 training sessions should normally include no more than 30 personnel in order to maximize the advantage of the small group experience. Peer-led sessions are encouraged using the different facilitation guides delineated by rank. a. Training Audience. FSA 3.0 training is strongly recommended for all uniformed Navy personnel and civilians or other service personnel assigned at Navy commands are encouraged to attend consistent with their mission requirements and command direction. b. Training Materials. FSA 3.0 training materials (videos, Facilitator Guide and supporting material), the FSA 3.0 TTT course schedule, regional points of contact and additional resources are available for download at the COE FSA website at (https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Support-Services/21st-Century-Sailor/Culture- of-Excellence/Full-Speed-Ahead/). 7. Documentation. For commands documenting completion of FSA 3.0 training using FLTMPS, learning event completion form each module has a unique course identification number: Full Speed Ahead (FSA) 3.0 Peer Level Training Module 1 (FSA-3.0-M1), Full Speed Ahead (FSA) 3.0 Peer Level Training Module 2 (FSA- 3.0-M2), Full Speed Ahead (FSA) 3.0 Peer Level Training Module 3 (FSA-3.0-M3) and Full Speed Ahead (FSA) 3.0 Peer Level Training Module 4 (FSA-3.0-M4). 8. Assessment. This should not be viewed as *one and done* training. Behavior change takes practice. All commands are encouraged to take ownership of this training by assessing the knowledge and understanding of the topics discussed by Sailors and by making this training a part of day-to- day conversations. The measure of success of this training will be the extent to which Sailors remain engaged up and down the chain of command and continue the conversation among their peers about making good decisions, modeling signature behaviors and treating everyone with dignity and respect. 9. POC are CDR Tracy Less, who can be reached via e-mail at theresa.c.less(at)us.navy.mil and CM1 Bill Root, who can be reached via e-mail at william.e.root23(at)us.navy.mil. 10.

This NAVADMIN provides guidance for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 Navy Active and Reserve Component Enlisted Advancement Selection Boards for Chief Petty Officer. The Active Component and Training and Administration of the Reserves (TAR) cycle is 254 and the Selected Reserve (SELRES) cycle is 110. For board purposes, the Reserve Component (RC) board will consider TAR (cycle 254), SELRES and those serving on voluntary and involuntary recall and mobilization orders (cycle 110). Mobilized individual ready reserve and canvasser recruiter personnel are considered under the SELRES requirements for advancement. This is a change from policy in reference (a). 2. RC Timeline a. 28 February 2022: Individual augmentation evaluations used for time-in-rate (TIR) waivers must have an ending date by this date and must be available to the board. b. 6 May 2022: RC candidates changing ratings must be in their new rating by this date to be considered for selection in the new rating. c. 23 May 2022: Letter to the board (LTB) deadline for the RC E-7 selection board. d. 6 June 2022: RC E-7 selection board convenes. All eligibility requirements, to include any waivers, must have final approval and be posted to the records of the candidates prior to this date. e. 24 June 2022: RC E-7 selection board scheduled to adjourn. 3.

Eligibility Criteria. Candidates must meet the eligibility requirements outlined in chapters 2 and 11 of reference (a) and this NAVADMIN prior to the scheduled board convening date. All requirements must be reflected in the enlisted master file (EMF) for AC and TAR or inactive manpower and personnel management information system for SELRES, those serving on voluntary and involuntary recall and mobilization orders, mobilized individual ready reserve and canvasser recruiter personnel prior to the board convening. Requirements achieved or posted to the record of the candidates after the scheduled board convening date will be considered late and will not make a candidate eligible for the regularly scheduled board or entitle a candidate to a special selection board. If candidates are deemed ineligible for advancement and invalidated in Navy enlisted advancement system (NEAS) but later regain eligibility, submit a message-formatted e-mail to Naval Education and Training Professional Development Center (NETPDC) (N321) and Selection Board Eligibility Branch (PERS-802) requesting validation of eligibility status and provide an explanation. Eligibility requirements include: a. The name of the candidate appearing on the selection board eligibility list in the correct competitive group on their profile sheet. Candidates should register for e-mail notification for profile sheet updates via MyNavy Portal (MNP) https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/advancement-and-promotion/my-advancement. Select *My Profiles* then *Advancement Profile Sheet- Individuals.* Candidates and commands share equal responsibility to ensure the eligibility list is accurate. Because eligibility status can change without direct notification, candidates should verify their profile sheet on a continuous basis. Commands must verify their examination status verification reports (ESVR) weekly through the projected board adjourn date at the NEAS website via MNP https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/advancement-and-promotion/command-information. Select *Command Advancement Tools* then *Advancement Profile Sheet-ESO.* b. TIR date must be on or before 1 January 2020.

If an early promote (EP) TIR waiver is granted, the evaluation used to grant the EP TIR waiver must be available to the board. c. High year tenure (HYT) waivers must be approved prior to the board convening. In order to be eligible for board consideration, an eligible candidate must have a HYT date in current paygrade of 1 September 2022 or later. Candidates who reach HYT before 1 September 2022 for the next higher paygrade are ineligible for advancement, regardless of any approved HYT waiver. Service Members with an approved HYT date in September 2022 may apply for an additional waiver of their current HYT gate due to the current board results scheduling and terminal leave constraints. HYT waivers will be considered for up to an additional 2 months after 1 September 2022. Requests will be approved on a case-by-case basis. Sailors will submit a command endorsed Navy Personnel 1306/7 enlisted personnel action request (NAVPERS 1306/7) to My Navy Career Center (MNCC) via MyNavy Portal or by emailing the ePAR request directly to askmncc(at)navy.mil. Requests must be approved by 1 June 2022. d. Sailors with a previously approved retirement are automatically removed from board consideration (invalidated), unless the command completes a revalidation of the Sailors retirement prior to selection board convening date by sending an e-mail with a reason for revalidation to PERS-802 to ensure they are considered by the board. See paragraph 208 of reference (a) for fleet reserve request impacts to eligibility. e. Security clearance requirements. See paragraph 203 of reference (a).

  25. (Tribune News Service) — More than two dozen Navy SEALs and other service members, who said the Department of Defense has punished them for refusing the COVID-19 vaccination due to religious reasons, are asking the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold a preliminary injunction issued in January that sided with the military members. "The Navy service members in this case seek to vindicate the very freedoms they have sacrificed so much to protect," wrote U.S. District Judge Reed O'Connor, of Fort Worth, who issued the injunction, which has been upheld by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.
