Before he ended his life, Ryan Larkin made his family promise to donate his brain to science. The 29-year-old Navy SEAL was convinced years of exposure to blasts had badly damaged his brain, despite doctors telling him otherwise. He had downloaded dozens of research papers on traumatic brain injury out of frustration that no one was taking him seriously, his father said.

An active-duty member of the U.S. Navy is accused of shooting three strangers last month after a night out in Pioneer Square, killing one man and injuring two other people, according to King County prosecutors. Seattle police detectives arrested Victor Marshall, 23, on Monday at Naval Base Kitsap in Bremerton, and he was charged Thursday with second-degree murder and two counts of first-degree assault. Each charge also includes a firearm enhancement, which means that if convicted, Marshall faces a standard range sentence of 41 to 53 years in prison.

This NAVADMIN announces and discusses the name change for Navy Personnel Command (NAVPERSCOM) Career Transition Office (CTO) (PERS-97) from CTO to Reserve Processing and Affiliation Center (RPAC). 2. Background. Commander, Navy Personnel Command, Commander, Navy Reserve Force and Commander, Navy Recruiting Command have been engaging in functional re-alignment, transforming the Active Component to Reserve Component (AC2RC) process towards a "One Sales Agency" approach designed to maximize accession on-ramps, off-ramps, and retention across the Navy Reserve. As a part of this transformation, PERS-97 is transitioning to a processing center of excellence, centralizing transactions required to successfully affiliate transitioning members with the Navy Reserve. The shift from CTO to RPAC is representative of these changes and the inherent goal of providing enhanced customer service. 3. Process. The AC2RC affiliation process has been revised to capitalize on the strengths of all stakeholders involved. Commanding Officers (COs), command triads, and Command Career Counselors (CCCs) must review subsequent updates to respective policies and positional course syllabi to better advise their transitioning Sailors. a. Enlisted Sailors will continue to initiate the affiliation process through their CCCs via a Career Waypoints-Reenlistment application or an Enlisted Personnel Action Request (NAVPERS 1306/7), for a Selected Reserve (SELRES) quota. Following quota adjudication by Enlisted Reserve Community Management (BUPERS-352), all Sailors with an approved quota will be contacted by RPAC regarding their SELRES affiliation. b. Officers resigning from Active Duty will be counseled by the CO or Executive Officer, on the benefits of continued service in the Navy Reserve. Upon approval of their resignation by NAVPERSCOM Unqualified Officer Resignations (PERS-45), all officers will be initially contacted by the Navy Recruiting Reserve Command (NRRC) outreach team and processed for SELRES affiliation. After initial contact, NRRC will hand off transitioning officers to RPAC for continued processing to on ramp at their respective Navy Reserve Center. 4. Additional Information. All websites, documents and multi-media will be updated to reflect the name change from CTO to RPAC. Over the course of the next several months, RPAC representatives will coordinate with respective organizations and commands to execute the necessary changes. 5.

For TRICARE Prime Overseas and TRICARE Prime Remote Overseas beneficiaries, there are processes that help make this possible. If you get care at a military hospital or clinic, that facility uploads your medical records to your EHR. But when you get care from civilian network providers, you need to consent to the release and collection of your health records.

This NAVADMIN announces the policy and guidance for Calendar Year (CY) 2024 season one Meritorious Advancement Program (MAP) for Active Duty (Active Component and Training and Administration of the Reserve (TAR)) Sailors. MAP season one runs from 15 March through 15 April 2024. 2. MAP quotas are distributed over two seasons during CY24, with roughly half of the available MAP quotas allocated for each season. This aligns MAP with the Navy-Wide Advancement Exam (NWAE) 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 required Time-in-Rate (TIR) for MAP advancement eligibility to the higher paygrade, Sailors must have a date of rank no later than the following: a. E-5: 1 January 2023 b. E-5 (Nuclear-Trained Sailors): 1 January 2022 c. E-4: No TIR requirement. d. E-3 and junior: There will be no MAP to E2 through E4 this year in order to support transition to time-in-service based advancements to E2 through E4 beginning 1 July in line with reference (a). 3. Future of Apprentice MAP. Beginning in 2025, Navy will offer quotas for Commanding Officers (CO) to conduct MAP advancement to E4 for top performing E3 Sailors who have accrued at least 12 months' time-in-service. Quotas will be provided on an annual basis. There will no longer be MAP advancement to E2 or E3. 4. Timeline: a. MAP Pre-season: 1-14 March 2024. Budget Submitting Office (BSO) quotas will be promulgated separate coordination for planning purposes. b. MAP Quotas Uploaded: 14 March 2024 c. CY24 Legacy MAP Season 1: 15 March 2024 - 15 April 2024 5. In line with references (b) and (c), MAP advancement to ABE2, ABE1, ABF2, ABH2, AME2, AO2, CS2, DC2, DC1, EM2, GM2, GSM2, IC2, MM2, QM2, and RS2 is not authorized due to those Sailors having advancement opportunities within Detailing Marketplace Assignment Policy (DMAP). Additional details are located on the MyNavy HRs DMAP website, https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Career-Management/Detailing/Enlisted/Detailing- Marketplace/ 6. Commands are required to have two Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) MAP user roles (command reviewer and command reporting senior) to submit MAP advancements, Exceptions to Policy (ETPs) and additional MAP quota requests through NSIPS. NSIPS Web Afloat users and commands without access to NSIPS should refer to paragraph 6a of this message for instructions on submitting their MAP advancements. The system uses authoritative data to determine eligibility. However, commands are required to locally validate that MAP candidates have successfully completed the Professional Military Knowledge Eligibility Examination (PMK-EE) requirement for E5 and E6 MAP advancements only (PMK-EE requirement for E4 was removed in line with reference (a)) prior to the first day of the MAP season (15 March 2024) as outlined in reference (d). For training on user roles, log into NSIPS via https://www.nsips.cloud.navy.mil/, click on training tab, then click MAP tutorial (JPA). 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 Command (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 CO and should address any ETP and/or additional quotas requested. Sample MCLs and detailed information regarding the offline process can be found via MyNavy HR at https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Career-Management/Community- Management/Enlisted-Career-Admin/Advancement/MAP/. b. Quota usage, modifications, and distribution will be managed within the NSIPS environment. BSO and command quotas will be uploaded into NSIPS on 14 March 2024 and can be found under the quota summary report tab. Quotas can also be found via the MyNavy HR website: https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Career-Management/Community- Management/Enlisted-Career-Admin/Advancement/MAP/. c. Additional quotas can be requested using the quota request option by the command reviewer user role in NSIPS. Commands must contact their BSO to determine timeline for additional quota requests. Whether or not command quotas are authorized, all commands can request quotas from their BSO/echelon II command, via their ISIC and TYCOM. d. NSIPS will automatically determine if an ETP is required using predetermined criteria. Service Members 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 command using a hierarchical workflow. e. NSIPS will not automatically generate an ETP for nuclear- trained Service Members. Commands desiring to advance a nuclear- trained Service Member not meeting the TIR requirement must send notification to the Nuclear Enlisted Community Manager (N133D) at bullnuke@navy.mil. 7.

I am releasing Culture of Excellence 2.0 (COE 2.0), the foundation by which our Navy builds its Warfighters - our People, Leaders, and Teams - as a key enabler of delivering the decisive combat power I talked about in "America's Warfighting Navy." COE 2.0, empowered by the "Get Real, Get Better" (GRGB) call to think, act, and operate differently, will advance our approach to building our warfighters and warfighting Teams. We are taking the best parts of what has made our Navy great and building upon them. 3. This is not a new requirement. Rather COE 2.0 simplifies, streamlines, and aligns several Navy programs and concepts into an actionable approach for building great culture, providing new tools for Command Triads to better understand and act on the needs of their People. In doing so, we will raise the level of our lowest- performing commands and make our best commands even better. COE 2.0 will prepare us to operate in uncertain, complex, and rapidly changing environments by ensuring every member of the Navy Team has the opportunity to become Forged by the Sea: becoming the best version of themselves and doing the most valuable work of their lives alongside Sailors and civilians they trust and respect. With the right tools, such as COE 2.0, a winning mindset, and the highest levels of integrity, we will operate safely as a Team to deliver warfighting excellence. America is counting on us to do so. 4. We have been working with leadership at all levels from across the entire Navy - both at sea and ashore - over the past year to lay the foundation for the COE 2.0 launch. This includes: a. Mental Health Playbook V1.1, reference (g). Supports command leaders in preventing mental health issues from occurring and, when they do, to connect Sailors with the proper mental health care, at the right level, at the right time. b. MILPERSMAN 1320-307, Permanent Change of Station (PCS) Warm- Handoff, reference (h). Ensures Command Triads maintain an unbroken chain of supervision as a Sailor with known challenges or issues transfers from one command to another. c. NAVADMIN 006/24, Policy for the Assignment of Pregnant Sailors and Sailors Who Experience Perinatal Loss, reference (i). Improves Sailors' ability to balance family and career goals and gives them some flexibility in assignments for continued career advancement, including the option to PCS to another geographic location to fill a critical gap ashore. d. Suicide Related Behavior Response and Postvention Guide, reference (j). Provides command leaders a streamlined reference to manage suicide crisis response, suicide related behavior response, reintegration, and suicide postvention, to include Immediate Superior in Command (ISIC) responsibilities. e. NAVADMIN 037/24, Establishment of Navy Women's Initiative Team (Navy- WIT), reference (k). Broadens awareness and influences policy to support the recruitment and retention of women by building communities, developing best practices, discussing opportunities and recommending policy and program changes to remove barriers. 5. Navy Culture and Force Resilience Office website. This website supports hyperlinks from the COE 2.0 playbook, and has additional instructions, messages, and policies which will be regularly updated for easy consultation. COE 2.0 products are available at https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Support-Services/Culture-Resilience/Culture-of- Excellence/, and there are three entry points for every Sailor to access COE 2.0: a. COE 2.0 Placemat, reference (l). The front of the COE 2.0 placemat sets the standard for "what right looks like," where our shared Core Values and Warrior Toughness are the starting point for a winning mindset from which we build great people, great leaders, and great teams. The back of the COE 2.0 placemat is a self- assessment tool for foundational programs, moving beyond checklists and towards outcomes that make a difference. b. Forged by the Sea: COE 2.0 Playbook, reference (m). The Playbook aligns existing Navy programs into an approach for building a cultural foundation, to include one-pagers for key programs. 6. In support of COE 2.0, the following tools are now available to every Navy command: a. Warrior Toughness Placemat, reference (n). Navy is combining Warrior Toughness (taught at Recruit Training since 2018) and Expanded-Operational Stress Control (taught Fleet-wide since 2020) into one continuum. This placemat is the first step in that process, outlining a series of skills scientifically proven to enhance personal and team performance, toughness, and resilience. b. Virtual CO's suggestion box. Page 33 of reference (m) describes the QR code CO's suggestion box that can be employed alongside the traditional physical box. This anonymous feedback is only available to the command triad and is automatically deleted every 90 days. To request a virtual suggestion box, a member of the command triad can scan the QR code on page 33 or go to https://usnavy.gov1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_cx3MPZ0dS6OX0V0. c. Commander's Risk Mitigation Dashboard (CRMD). Page 34 of reference (m) introduces CRMD, a new tool for commanders to better understand the risk of destructive behaviors within their commands, enabling them to take appropriate action. Command leadership can scan the QR code on page 34 to get access for their command. 7. Today's release of COE 2.0 is the first step in an enduring process of continuous evaluation and improvement, and we will provide updates to Culture and Force Resilience resources, policy, and processes as needed. In the coming months, the following resources will be made available: a. Navy will release an updated necessary conversations guide, providing all hands with tools to better listen and understand each other, especially those with a different background than their own, including age. b. The Navy Leader Development Framework, reference (o), will be updated to reflect the "Great Leaders" column of the COE 2.0 placemat, including those leadership behaviors initially rolled out as part of GRGB. c. Navy will build on reference (p) and provide updated guidance for the CY24 Command Climate Assessment (CCA) annual window. This will include a revised template for conducting the ISIC debrief and the ability for every Navy command to leverage additional survey tools to better listen to their people, take corrective actions, and better their quality of service. d. Supporting instructions will be revised to incorporate COE 2.0. 8. During this month's Naval Flag Officer/Senior Executive Service/ Senior Enlisted Leader conference, specific tasks will be provided to Navy leaders as part of the broader COE 2.0 rollout. These tasks include: Highlighting leaders and commands in their community that best embody the tenets of COE 2.0; providing best practices that build COE 2.0; and providing vignettes and training plans that explain COE 2.0 using the language of our Navy's communities, at all ranks E1 to O10. 9. Closing Thoughts. Our Navy's mission could not be more significant or consequential in this decisive decade. COE 2.0 is central to investing in the warfighters needed for mission success. I am proud to serve alongside you, and I thank you and your families for what you do every day to support our Navy and our Nation. 10.
