This exercise order (EXORD) directs Commander, Naval Air Force Reserve (CNAFR), Naval Special Warfare Group ELEVEN (NSWG-11), and Navy Reserve Region Readiness and Mobilization Commands (REDCOMs) to participate in MAX 23. MAX 23 commences 01MAR2023 and ends 31MAR2023. B. This EXORD requests Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BUMED) to solicit and issue orders for the full complement (413 plus alternates)of assigned Selected Reservists (SELRES) to provide medical support in accordance with the BSO-18 Reserve Component Medical Support of Adaptive Mobilization Concept of Operations during MAX 23 over the selected NRCs' normally scheduled March drill weekend. Selected NRCs are delineated in Para 5.B below. 2. Background. A. In September 2021, a new construct for mobilization named Adaptive Mobilization (AM) was conceptually approved by the Chief of Naval Personnel (CNP) and the Chief of Navy Reserve (CNR). AM was designed to satisfy both steady-state and mass activation requirements and encompasses all processes of distributed activation (DA), distributed mobilization (DM), distributed de-mobilization (DDM), and distributed de-activation (DDA). The AM construct was codified via reference (a). B. In FY-23, Commander, Navy Reserve Force directed the planning and execution of three MOBEXs to develop, test, and evaluate DA processes per reference (b). The force must continue to execute and leverage readiness improvement initiatives incorporated in the Chapter 1 Tables of reference (c). C. FY-23 MOBEXs are designed to evaluate the progress of driving readiness across the force as well as develop and improve AM processes. MAX 23 is the second exercise in the series for FY-23. 3. Commander's Intent. A. Commander, Navy Reserve Force (CNRF) executes AM to mobilize designated personnel for both (1) mass activation in support of strategic competition as well as (2) steady-state and emergent ad hoc augmentation. B. Exercises evaluate and improve mobilization processes and readiness for strategic competition. MAX 23, directed in reference (b), will exercise the mobilization-to-billet pathway processes for SELRES. (1) Per reference (d), each SELRES Sailor is required to know and understand the requirements of their programmed mobilization billet, as well as to be ready to activate and serve in that billet on day one. C. The main objectives of MOBEXs is to evaluate Echelon (ECH) IV/V commands' ability to execute AM processes with a focus on accuracy of strength gain (i.e. activation) package processing and screening checklist (NAVPERS 1300/22 and NAVMED 1300/4) completion. MAX 23 will also integrate and test BUMED's concept of operations, BSO-18 Reserve Component Medical Support of Adaptive Mobilization. D. Participation is directed by CNRF and mandatory for all members selected to participate per Para 5 of this EXORD. Non-participants, as defined in Para 4, will be listed by name in the respective after action report (AAR) directed in Para 4. 4. Execute. A. There will be three (3) CNRF N35 MAX 23 exercise coordination and execution meetings held for all participating ECH III/IV/V commands. (1) All personnel attending these meetings will read this EXORD in its entirety prior to attending a meeting. (2) Agenda items will be the same at all three sessions. Multiple sessions will be held to allow for flexibility of ECH III/IV/V command staff in attending. Attendance at all sessions is not required, but information covered at each session may not be identical based on questions from the audience. These meetings will be held via Microsoft Teams on 24JAN2023 at 2100Z, 26JAN2023 at 2100Z, and 08FEB2023 at 1700Z.

B. Additional Training Periods (ATPs). The use of rescheduled drills or ATPs are authorized for members to complete exercise requirements outside of their normally scheduled drill weekend. Additional ATP requests should be made via the process described herein, and should not be made via reserve program directors (RPDs). (1) If a unit's additional drill balance is depleted and additional drills are required to complete exercise requirements, a request will be submitted from Navy Reserve augment unit leadership to their NRA (ECH V command) by TRUIC. (2) CNAFR, NSWG-11, and REDCOMs will consolidate requests and submit to CNRF in accordance with procedures/template promulgated to the adaptive mobilization action officer leads with a suspense date of 17FEB2023.

  3. WASHINGTON — A key system on aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford forced the cancelation of an at-sea test in August, but the ship successfully completed an overseas mission in the fall after the U.S. Navy installed a new replacement part. A Pentagon test and evaluation office noted in a January report the Ford’s jet blast deflector — the large panel that raises just before a jet is catapulted off the flight deck to protect the ship and sailors from intense heat — was among the systems with ongoing reliability problems that hindered the ship from reaching its promised efficiency.

This NAVADMIN extends reference (a) and announces the policy and guidance for Calendar Year (CY) 2023 Meritorious Advancement Program (MAP) Season One for Active Duty (Active Component (AC) and Training and Administration of the Reserve (TAR)) Sailors. CY-23 MAP Season One will run from 1 March through 15 April 2023. This season continues the added preseason window for commands to verify user hierarchies and unit identification code (UIC) assignments ahead of the season. The timeline in paragraph 3 contains details. 2. MAP will target approximately 20 percent of total advancements during CY- 23, with roughly half of the available MAP quotas allocated for each of the two MAP seasons during the year. The two-season framework aligns MAP with the Navy-wide advancement exam (NWAE). This is to ensure any unused MAP quotas are included in the NWAE cycle and to emphasize the intent of MAP to select and reward top performing Sailors. To meet the required time-in-rate (TIR) for MAP advancement eligibility, Sailors must have a date of rank no later than the following: a. E-5: 1 January 2022. b. E-5 (Nuclear-Trained Sailors): 1 January 2021. c. E-4 and below: No TIR requirement. 3. Timeline: a. MAP Pre-season: 6-19 February 2023. b. MAP Quotas Uploaded: 20 February 2023. c. CY-23 MAP Season One: 1 March - 15 April 2023. 4. In line with references (b) and (c), MAP advancement to ABH2, ABF2, GSM2 CS2, MM2, IC2, DC2, and RS2 for AC Sailors is not authorized, due to those Sailors having advancement opportunities within Detailing Marketplace Assignment Policy (DMAP). Additional details are located on the MyNavy HR DMAP website, https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Career-Management/Detailing/Enlisted/Detailing-Marketplace/ 5. Commands are required to have two Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) MAP user roles (command reviewer and command reporting senior) in order to submit MAP advancement(s), exception(s) to policy (ETP), and additional MAP quota requests through NSIPS. NSIPS Web Afloat users and commands without access to NSIPS should refer to paragraph 5a for instructions on submitting their MAP advancements. The system will use authoritative data to determine eligibility, however, commands are required to locally validate that MAP candidates have successfully completed the professional military knowledge eligibility examination requirement prior to the first day of the MAP season (1 March 2023) as outlined in reference (d). For training on user roles, log into NSIPS via https://www.nsips.navy.mil/, click on the training tab, then click MAP tutorial. a. NSIPS Web Afloat users and commands without access to NSIPS must submit a MAP nomination request via e-mail directly to their immediate superior in charge (ISIC), type commander (TYCOM), or budget submitting office (BSO)/Echelon II command using the meritorious certification letter (MCL). The letter must be signed by the commanding officer and should address any ETP and/or additional quotas requested. Sample MCLs and detailed information regarding the offline process can be found via MyNavy Portal (MNP)at https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/advancement-and-promotion/a-enlisted-advancement-resources-and-links, then select the *Websites* tab in the blue banner, then select the MAP homepage. b. Quota usage, modifications, and distribution will be managed within the NSIPS environment. BSO and command quotas will be uploaded into NSIPS on 20 February 2023 and can be found under the quota summary report tab. The list of points of contact for each BSO/Echelon II command and a list of parent and subordinate UICs can also be found on the above website. Quotas can also be found via MNP at https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/advancement-and-promotion/a-enlisted-advancement-resources-and-links, then select the *Websites* tab in the blue banner, then select the MAP homepage. c. Additional quotas can be requested using the quota request option by the command reviewer user role. Commands must contact their BSO to determine a timeline for additional quota requests. Whether or not command quotas are authorized, all commands have the opportunity to request quotas from their BSO/Echelon II commands, via their ISIC and TYCOM, unless the rating is not authorized for MAP in line with paragraph 4. d. NSIPS will automatically determine if an ETP is required using predetermined criteria. Sailors in ratings requiring security clearances and rates/pay grades requiring TIR waivers will be automatically routed for adjudication. The request will be routed through the ISIC, TYCOM, and BSO/Echelon II commands using a hierarchical workflow. e. NSIPS will not automatically generate an ETP for nuclear-trained Sailors. Commands desiring to advance nuclear-trained Sailors not meeting the TIR requirement must request an ETP from Director, Military Personnel Plans and Policy (OPNAV N13) via the Nuclear Program Manager (OPNAV N133). 6.
