                        PERMANENT PROMOTION TO LIEUTENANT 
    Although the Secretary of Defense approved the FY-23 Lieutenant All-Fully-

    3.  The commanding officer (CO), the Secretary of the Navy, or his designee, 
    has the authority to delay projected promotions.  Upon the exercise of a

    documentation to COMNAVPERSCOM (PERS-83), copy to COMNAVPERSCOM (PERS-806). 
     
    4.  COs are reminded of their responsibility to ensure the officers they are 
    promoting are mentally, physically, morally and professionally qualified in 
    accordance with section 14311 of title 10, U.S. Code.   Per reference (a), 
    officers are ineligible for promotion if they have failed the most recent 
    Physical Fitness Assessment.  COs shall verify the promoting officer's 
    information in the Physical Readiness Information Management System to ensure 
    compliance with reference (a), as modified by reference (b), and delay the 
    officers promotion in accordance with paragraph 3 of this NAVADMIN, if 
    required. 
     
    5.  Prepare a Delivery of Permanent Appointment (NAVPERS FORM 1421/7) (Rev 
    10-13).  Use this NAVADMIN as reference (a).  Use section 14308 of title 10,

    reference (c) and (d) for minimum time-in-grade (TIG)/service-in-grade 
    requirements for purposes of active-duty voluntary retirement.  (NOTE:  TIG 
    TAR LCDR voluntary retirements changed with National Defense Authorization 
    Act 2021; Update to reference (c) is pending.)  TAR officers and those 
    officers temporarily on active-duty anticipating release from active-duty 
    under reference (e) may accept promotion without incurring any additional 
    active-duty obligation. 
     
    7.  New photographs are required for all officers within three months after 
    acceptance of promotion.  See reference (f), for specific requirements.

  5. The U.S. military received hundreds of new reports of potential UFOs over the span of just over a year, according to an unclassified document released by the government last week.

    The filing documents 366 total incidents in which unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) were observed between March 2021 and August 2022. More than half of those were categorized as “unremarkable” and attributed to objects like balloons, drones and “clutter.” But that left 171 that could not be readily explained, including some that appeared to demonstrate “unusual flight characteristics or performance capabilities.”

  6. 😇

    Hody Childress was a farmer living off his meager retirement savings in the small town of Geraldine, Ala.

    About 10 years ago, he walked into Geraldine Drugs and pulled aside owner Brooke Walker to ask if there were families in town who couldn’t afford to pay for their medications.

    “I told him, ‘Yes, unfortunately that happens often,’” recalled Walker, 38. “And he handed me a $100 bill, all folded up.”

    RMKS/1.  Per reference (a), this message announces the rescission of the 
    Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination requirement for members of 
    the Armed Forces.  As a result, reference (b) is hereby canceled. 
     
    2.  COVID-19 vaccines have proven to be safe, effective, and life-saving.  I 
    am confident that our high vaccination percentage across the Department of 
    the Navy (DON) has both saved lives, and prevented hospitalizations across 
    our entire force. 
     
    3.  The Navy and Marine Corps are inherently expeditionary forces in 
    readiness, and my expectation continues to be that all Sailors and Marines be 
    worldwide deployable.  To defend the nation, we need a healthy and ready 
    force, this means a Navy and Marine Corps that is ready to deploy.  Having 
    credible, capable forces requires the DON to minimize addressable risks – 
    contagious disease is a threat to our fighting forces.  We will continue to 
    consider medical readiness, of which vaccination plays a key role, in all 
    appropriate settings.  All commanders have the responsibility and authority 
    to maintain military readiness, unit cohesion, good order and discipline, and 
    the health and safety of their commands. 
     
    4.  Because reference (b) is now canceled, the Services shall cease any 
    ongoing reviews of current Service Members' religious, administrative, or 
    medical accommodation requests solely for exemption from the COVID-19 vaccine 
    or appeals of denials of such requests.  No currently serving Sailor or 
    Marine shall be separated solely on the basis of their failure to receive the 
    COVID-19 vaccination if they sought an accommodation on religious, 
    administrative, or medical grounds. 
     
    5.  We will continue to promote and encourage the COVID-19 vaccination for 
    everyone.  As with all of our vaccinations, healthcare providers will 
    continue to medically screen for contraindications.  I thank you for your 
    selfless devotion to your colleagues, military and civilian, throughout this 
    pandemic.

  8. Navy leaders as well as congressional representatives are vowing to address the service's persistent mental health problems, which have been punctuated by a recent suicide crisis, after a tour of a facility where four sailors died by suicide in just over a month.

    Lawmakers are pointing to a 2021 law that was meant to provide help and asking why it hasn't been fully put into effect by the Pentagon.

  9. The Navy has officially stopped separating sailors who refuse the COVID vaccine, a fleetwide order that follows Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin Jan. 10 directive to end the mandate.

    In a Jan. 11 naval administrative message, Chief of Naval Personnel Vice Adm. Rick Cheeseman noted that all commands will “immediately discontinue administrative separation processing of Navy Service Members solely for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine, including those with approved separation letters.”

  10. The new year is here, so it’s important to take stock of your family’s overall health plan coverage. This is especially true when it comes to other health insurance (OHI). You may have had OHI last year, but now no longer. Or perhaps you’ve recently gained or changed OHI. In any of these cases, make sure your OHI information is current with TRICARE, so your health care claims are processed accurately.
     
    “It’s important to tell your doctor and other health care providers if you have coverage in addition to TRICARE,” said Shane Pham, TRICARE Health Plan policy and programs analyst at the Defense Health Agency. “This will help them send your bills to the correct payer and avoid delays.”

  12. A Republican lawmaker is accusing the government of a cover-up on UFOs, days after a declassified report revealed hundreds of new encounters with what the military now prefers to call unidentified aerial phenomenon.

    “This thing is a huge cover-up, for whatever reason,” Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) told NewsNation over the weekend. “And I just feel like America is ready, we need to know, and to stop with all the shenanigans.”

    mark.  E-7s are eligible to contract to 24 YOAS.  E-8s are eligible to 
    contract to 26 YOAS.  E-9s are eligible to contract to 30 YOAS.  If a Sailor 
    serves a partial year, that year will be prorated pursuant to the bonus 
    amount of that year. 
    All payments must be completed before the Sailor reaches 28 YOAS, and all 
    Sailors must contract prior to reaching 28 YOAS.  Specific bonus amounts are 
    graduated in line with YOAS. 
            (1) Phase One NSW SSRB.  The Sailor must be E-7 or above and carry 
    the O26X/O52X NEC to apply for a phase one bonus.  Phase one corresponds with 
    E-7 HYT and encompasses 20 to 24 YOAS.  Sailors will have the opportunity to 
    receive up to 80,000 dollars in retention bonuses for phase one 
    contracts.  At a minimum, members must contract through 21 YOAS. 
    YOAS                Bonus Amount

            (3) Phase Three NSW SSRB.  The Sailor must be E-9 (select) or above

    29+                 25,000 dollars 
            (4) SSRB Contract.  SSRB contract phases may be combined as long as 
    the Sailor is eligible to receive payments to the contracted end dates. 
        b.  NSW SSRB contracts will be for a minimum of 2 and a maximum of  
    3 years.  Sailors under the SSRB contract will not submit a request for 
    retirement with an effective date that is prior to the completion of the 
    agreement.  Sailors must reenlist or extend their enlistment contract, soft 
    end of active obligated service, for a period of at least 2 years.  Sailors 
    are authorized early reenlistment in order to align SSRB and reenlistment 
    contracts. 
    Reenlistments and extensions may be combined to align service dates for the 
    maximum opportunity, up to a reenlistment of 6 years and an extension of up 
    to 12 months. 
     
    6.  Program Execution: 
        a.  Sailors should submit requests for NSW SSRB to the program manager 60 
    to 180 days prior to entering into an NSW SSRB contract via their chain of 
    command.  If operational commitments limit the ability to submit SSRB 
    applications via this manner, commands should submit requests through their 
    immediate superior in the chain of command who can submit the request to the 
    program manager. 
        b.  Upon acceptance of an agreement of the Sailor by the program manager, 
    the amount of the bonus becomes fixed and the Sailor incurs a firm service 
    obligation. 
        c.  Sailors will receive the bonus in a lump sum payment, effective from 
    the date of contract execution. 
        d.  SSRB requests for personnel who are being processed for disciplinary 
    action, NEC removal, or restoration will be held in abeyance pending final 
    resolution. 
     
    7.  Payment Processing.  SSRB approval does not currently update the Navy 
    Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) of the intent of the Sailor to 
    reenlist.  Until NSIPS can be programmed to accept SSRB reenlistment 
    payments, manual processing is required.  Payment should post to the account 
    of the member by the second pay period following the day the SSRB program 
    manager receives the notification of reenlistment.  Master Military Pay 
    Account (MMPA) must reflect contract or obligated service for enlisted 
    Sailors and tax-free status (if applicable) must post to MMPA prior to final 
    payment. 
     
    8.  Application.  The following documents are required: 
        a.  60-180 days prior to contract: 
            (1) Letter of the Sailor requesting a NSW SSRB contract. 
            (2) COs endorsement letter. 
        b.  Prior to payment, Sailors will submit a copy of reenlistment contract 
    and/or extension agreement with proof of tax-free status, if applicable. 
     
    9.  Points of Contact: 
        a.  LCDR Andrew Parker, Sea, Air, Land (SEAL) and Special Warfare 
    Combatant-craft Crewmen (SWCC) Enlisted Community Manager, at (703) 604-5064
