REF B IS NAVADMIN 291/22, GOVERNMENT TRAVEL CHARGE CARD USE IN SUPPORT OF PERMANENT CHANGE OF STATION TRAVEL. REF C IS DEFENSE TRAVEL MANAGEMENT OFFICE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE GOVERNMENT TRAVEL CHARGE CARD REGULATIONS. REF D IS DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE INSTRUCTION 5154.31 VOLUME 4, COMMERCIAL TRAVEL MANAGEMENT: DOD GOVERNMENT TRAVEL CHARGE CARD (GTCC) PROGRAM. REF E IS JOINT TRAVEL REGULATIONS.// RMKS/1. This cancels and replaces references (a) and (b). Effective immediately, use of the Government Travel Charge Card (GTCC) for Permanent Change of Station (PCS) is mandatory for all Navy travelers who are eligible for or already possess a GTCC. 2. The Department of Defense (DoD) policy is the GTCC will be used by all eligible DoD travelers to pay for costs related to official government travel. See section 0406 in reference (c) for exemptions to mandatory use. Official government travel is defined as travel under official orders while performing duties pertaining to official government assignments such as Temporary Duty (TDY) and PCS. New accession appointees and recruits are exempt from mandatory use of the GTCC. a. Use of the GTCC for PCS travel applies to personnel who are: (1) Active Duty (2) Training and Administration of the Reserves (TAR) (3) Selected Reservist (SELRES) executing Active Duty for Operational Support (ADOS) and Officer Recall PCS orders b. Use of the GTCC for PCS travel does not apply to: (1) Personnel on accession, separation, or retirement orders (2) DoD Contractors (3) Individual mobilization augmentees (4) Individual Ready Reserve Navy personnel (5) Individuals not eligible to obtain a GTCC or are otherwise explicitly exempted by references (c) or (d). 3. To improve oversight and training of the GTCC program, and to reduce GTCC delinquencies associated with misuse and abuse, training at the command level is imperative. Commanders must ensure GTCC training is conducted at the following website utilizing Microsoft Edge browser: https://secure.defensetravel.dod.mil/neowbtraining/Travel_Card/lesso ns/index.php. Additionally, in coordination with the Supply officer and Command Pay and Personnel Administrator (CPPA), Sailors must be counseled by the Command Financial Specialist or Agency Program Coordinator (APC) on proper GTCC use prior to detaching for a PCS. The command must document the training with a signed Page 13 during the command check-in/checkout process. This counseling must also include a signed DD Form 3120 Statement of Understanding and be retained on file. 4. Except for non-concurrent travel and Personally Procured Move (PPM) advances, travel advances are not authorized for Sailors who have a GTCC. Sailors ineligible for a GTCC may be paid travel advances to cover anticipated PCS related costs. Dislocation Allowance is an unauthorized use for the GTCC and will be provided as an advance. 5. Sailors must check-out with their detaching APC to confirm a zero dollar balance on the GTCC, provide updated contact information, and verify their GTCC is ready for use. Detaching APCs must review CitiManager to ensure the traveler's GTCC account is in PCS mission critical status 5 days prior to the approved detachment date and ensure it remains in PCS mission critical status for the duration of the travel period. Sailors must work with their detaching APC during the travel period for credit limit increases. In cases of emergency, Sailors may also contact MyNavy Career Center (MNCC) Human Resources Services Center (HRSC). 6. Sailors will check-in with the gaining CPPA to submit their travel voucher to Transaction Service Center (TSC) Memphis via Enterprise Customer Relationship Management (eCRM) within 5 working days and before executing any permissive TDY. Split Disbursement is mandatory when using GTCC for PCS travel. Commands not supported by TSC Memphis, such as carriers and sub-tenders and who have their own Accounting and Disbursing Station Number (ADSN), will submit PCS travel claims to their respective PCS travel office for processing. 7. Cardholders must ensure all required receipts are submitted with their travel claim and review their GTCC account for accuracy. Sailors are liable for full repayment of the GTCC, regardless of travel voucher reimbursement. Reimbursement is based on PCS allowance rules in accordance with reference (e). GTCC must be paid in full upon travel claim liquidation. Sailors will be reimbursed for PCS expenses up to their maximum entitlement and all available funds due will be used to pay off GTCC balance. Overspending beyond entitlements may result in personal indebtedness. 8. Authorized uses of the GTCC for PCS travel: a. Dual-military PCS. Service Members must each use their own GTCC for respective PCS expenses (meals, fuel, etc.) and file separate travel vouchers for individual travel. b. Temporary Lodging Allowance (TLA) for Outside Continental United States (OCONUS) Permanent Duty Station (PDS). Sailors should work with their CPPA to submit TLA vouchers. TLA cannot be split disbursed. Sailors must pay CitiBank directly for TLA expenses. c. Temporary Lodging Expense (TLE) at the old or new Continental United States (CONUS) PDS. Service Members who use their GTCC for TLE expenses to their PDS should file a supplemental Travel Voucher upon completion of their temporary lodging stay. d. Lodging. e. Meals. f. Rental car and fuel, when a rental car is the authorized mode of transportation. g. Fuel and electric vehicle charging for a Privately Owned Vehicle (POV) when POV is the authorized mode of transportation. 9. Unauthorized Uses of the GTCC: a. Separation or retirement travel. b. Dislocation Allowance (DLA) expenses. c. PPM operating expenses (e.g. rental truck/trailers, moving supplies, weight ticket fees, etc.). d. Short-term Storage-in-Transit (SIT) or long-term NonTemporary Storage (NTS) of PPMs or other household goods. e. Payment for a government-related debt (such as a Defense Finance Accounting Service (DFAS) delinquent debt, pay.gov payments, etc.) f. Expenses unrelated to PCS travel (e.g., childcare, entertainment, uniform items, circuitous travel, etc.). 10.

  3. Demonstrators will take to the streets nationwide on Saturday for the “No Kings Day of Peaceful Action” against the Trump administration’s policies. Organizers believe that the president is acting more like a king rather than the leader of a democracy.
  4. Mr. Makeup wants your attention now! Look at him!... Secretary of WAAH Pete Hedgehog is ordering troops to watch or read his speech last month at Quantico, Va., when he declared the "woke" military is gone, decried "fat generals" and ordered women in the military to meet the "highest male standards" for physical fitness.
  5. Per the official description, “The Age of Disclosure” documents “an 80-year global cover-up of non-human intelligent life and a secret war among major nations to reverse-engineer advanced technology of non-human origin. Featuring testimony from 34 members of the U.S. Government, military and intelligence communities, the film exposes the profound stakes for the future of humanity.”
  6. Michael Ziegler, close friend of Tina Heins’ husband, identified as her killer through genetic genealogy, state attorney says
  7. In the event of my passing, I would like to ensure that “Nobody’s Girl” is still released.” This first excerpt of her memoir, exclusive to Vanity Fair, takes place during the summer of 2000, when Giuffre was sixteen years old and worked in the spa at Donald trump’s Mar-a-Lago.
  8. Jack Smith, the special counsel who brought two criminal cases against Donald Trump, spoke out against the Trump administration in a rare interview
  9. Thank you to the newspapers that are reporting on the pentagon's misdeeds & refusing to sign that hitler document... Freedom of Press The following is the Oct. 15, 2025, defense trade press statement on media restrictions at the Pentagon. The statement is co-signed by USNI News.
  10. Troops are already staring to get paid you little Weasel. Aren't you, as speaker of the house, supposed to motivate & unite? The move is most likely illegal but the Democrats want servicemembers to get paid. They also don't want Federal workers to get fired and to get paid... House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) dared Democrats on Tuesday to challenge President Trump’s administration move to repurpose previously appropriated funds to pay service members during the government shutdown. “If the Democrats want to go to court and challenge troops being paid, bring it. OK,” Johnson said during a press conference at the Capitol.
  11. This is getting sick people... In late January, Lt. Gen. Joe Berger, who had taken the top posting in July 2024, was asked for his advice about the legality of using Texas National Guard soldiers for immigration enforcement. Berger told Army chief of staff Gen. Randy George that he was skeptical and wanted more information about whether the soldiers were properly trained for that kind of mission, according to a former senior defense official and another person familiar with his actions. He was told by the department’s acting general counsel, Charlie Young, to stop meddling in state affairs, the sources said.
  12. This is crazy and disgusting. I also believe this is the direction the Republican party is going... Dwyer responded: “1488.” That figure is a form of shorthand among white supremacists when making reference to their beliefs. It refers to the 14 words of text in the slogan, “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children.” The “88” stands for “Heil Hitler,” with the H marking the eighth letter of the alphabet.
  13. Troops were starting to see money deposited into their accounts on Tuesday a few days after the Defense Department said that it was moving $8 billion out of research and development funds to dish out paychecks amid the ongoing government shutdown.
  14. What a sick administration... While the Pentagon is attributing the money to RDTE funds, the treasury secretary told Fox Business Network that the government is furloughing workers in other government sectors to be able to pay military members, Reuters reported.
  15. The strike is the most recent example of Trump's efforts to use U.S. military power in new, and often legally contentious, ways, from deploying active-duty U.S. troops in Los Angeles to carrying out counter-terrorism strikes against drug trafficking suspects.
  16. Thomas Jefferson, no fan of the press himself, once wrote that our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, "and that cannot be limited without being lost." He knew a free and fair press is an essential safeguard to a functioning democracy... When we flew by helicopter to bring David and Zabi's bodies to a nearby American base, the U.S. general there ordered an honor cordon, a tribute that is usually reserved for fallen troops, not civilians from the United States and Afghanistan. Out of respect for two people who'd lost their lives in their line of duty, doing their jobs documenting the truth as journalists, U.S. soldiers lined up in the darkness on either side as David and Zabi were carried off the helicopter.  I fought hard not to weep at one of the most decent, humane, and heartfelt gestures I've ever seen.
  17. Thanks to that commander-in-chief's tariff war that he created. trump should have anticipated this, that big dummy... Beijing will not allow the export of rare earth materials for use by foreign militaries, China’s Ministry of Commerce announced on Oct. 9. These are the first restrictions imposed by China that specifically target the defense sector, according to Gracelin Baskaran, a critical minerals expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
  18. News organizations including The New York Times, The Associated Press and the conservative Newsmax television network said Monday they will not sign a Defense Department document about its new press rules, making it likely the Trump administration will evict their reporters from the Pentagon. Those outlets say the policy threatens to punish them for routine news gathering protected by the First Amendment. The Washington Post, The Atlantic and Reuters on Monday also publicly joined the group that says it will not be signing.
  19. Well, these decisions by the GOP have consequences, and some are already appearing. A video of military troops standing in long lines at a food pantry in Harker Heights, Texas has gone viral:
  20. Can Trump pay the troops using Defense money, and does it require a House vote? Where are the funds coming from? Will the military actually get paid on Oct. 15? Here's what we know.
  21. Many military families were struggling financially even before the shutdown, said Daniela Hines with Blue Star Families of America. "The younger generation of military families have less than $3,000 in savings and that comprises one-third of military families. So all of this financial instability is really impactful for them and causing a lot of angst," she said. Thank you trump...
  22. Basically, Secretary of WAAH Pentagon Pete Hedgehog messed up once again. This person is unqualified for the position he was gifted... US announces it will allow Qatar to build an Air Force facility in Idaho JD Vance Completely Undercuts Pete Hedgehog on Qatar Military Base
  23. US military veterans increasingly face arrest and injury amid protests over Donald Trump’s deportation campaign and his push to deploy national guard members to an ever-widening number of American cities. The Guardian has identified eight instances where military veterans have been prosecuted or sought damages after being detained by federal agents. The latest incident occurred in Broadview, outside Chicago, where 70-year old air force veteran Dana Briggs was charged with felony assault on a federal officer on 29 September.
  24. With 2025 coming to a close in a couple months and the fiscal year just starting–despite a government shutdown– the United States Navy is once again pressed with the question of reevaluating its fleet. Each year, the Navy decides which ships are ready for retirement and which will continue to be part of the fleet. The Navy also adds new ships as a means to introduce new tech and replace the older vessels being retired or sold off
  25. Let's remember the federal workers that will not get paid... WASHINGTON — The Department of Defense plans to siphon $8 billion in leftover fiscal 2025 research and development funding to ensure troops get a paycheck during the ongoing government shutdown, a department official said in a statement on Saturday.
