The U.S. Navy used its munitions at an "alarming rate" to defend Israel from recent Iranian strikes, a military official said Tuesday, raising questions from lawmakers about how it intends to replace and maintain stockpiles amid global threats.

Admiral James Kilby, Naval Operations acting chief, made the remark in his testimony during a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing on the Navy’s budget in Washington when Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, asked about the Navy’s available munitions to defend against global threats.

      CFL/ACFLs - 18 JUN 25

      CFL/ACFLs, PRIMS “incomplete” error - PFA Cycle data will result in incomplete if the waiver is entered after the BCA and PRT. Waivers must be entered before PFA data, or it will result in incomplete. CFLs and ACFLs have edit capabilities. Steps to accomplish edits can be found in either online CFL or ACFL Training course by typing "edit bca" or "edit prt" in the search feature. CFL/ACFL roles have a limited number of edits on correcting PFA data. This option is provided to assist CFL/ACFLs in fixing errors such as data entry errors, correcting bad day PRTs and editing medical waivers. Once edit limits have been reached, any additional corrections to the official PFA record are to be submitted to My Navy Career Center (MNCC) via letter of correction (LOC), endorsed by the CO as indicated in PRP Guide 1.

REF D IS MILPERSMAN 1160-135, HIGH YEAR TENURE AND LENGTH OF SERVICE FOR SELECTED RESERVE, INDIVIDUAL READY RESERVES (VOLUNTARY TRAINING UNIT AND ACTIVE STATUS POOL), AND STANDBY RESERVE-ACTIVE (USNR-S1). RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN announces updates to references (a) and (b) through reinstatement of High Year Tenure (HYT) policy previously established in references (c) and (d) for Reserve Component (RC) enlisted Sailors of the Selected Reserve (SELRES) and Training and Administration of the Reserves (TAR), as described below. By expanding opportunities for Active Component (AC) and Reserve Component (RC) Sailors to extend beyond High Year Tenure (HYT) limits, the HYT Plus policy has strengthened enlisted end strength and continues to enable Sailors to fill critical sea and shore assignments essential to meeting the Navy's operational needs. 2. For SELRES and TAR: a. Due to current manning and evolving total force needs, effective 30 September 2025, the HYT Plus pilot indefinite extension will conclude for SELRES and TAR Sailors. HYT and Length of Service (LOS) gates will revert to the standards outlined in reference (c) for TAR and reference (d) for SELRES. After 30 September 2025, RC Sailors may still serve past established HYT LOS gates, but must submit standard individual waiver requests within established timelines as delineated in references (c) or (d), as applicable, and be approved by appropriate authority. b. SELRES Sailors approaching the end of their HYT Plus extension before 30 September 2025 may submit a waiver request for continued service under HYT Plus. If approved, they may serve for up to two additional years; however, no HYT Plus waiver may extend beyond 30 September 2027. Beginning 1 October 2025, SELRES Sailors approaching a HYT LOS gate may submit standard individual HYT waiver requests in line with reference (d). c. Beginning 1 October 2025, TAR Sailors approaching a HYT LOS gate may submit standard individual HYT waiver requests in line with reference (c). d. All RC Sailors currently approved for HYT Plus will retain their status through their existing approved HYT extension. e. As outlined in references (c) and (d), exception to policy waivers beyond established limits and HYT waivers must be submitted for adjudication by appropriate authority to the Reserve Enlisted Community Branch (BUPERS3152) via MyNavy Career Center (MNCC). 3. All other HYT Plus pilot policies outlined in references (a) and (b) remain unchanged unless specifically addressed in this NAVADMIN. HYT Plus remains available to all AC pay grades, with the exception of those pay grades specified in reference (a). AC Sailors subject to HYT and LOS gates may request waiver of HYT requirements under the policy in reference (c). 4. The MyNavy HR HYT page is located at: https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/Career-Management/CommunityManagement/Enlisted-Career-Admin/High-Year-Tenure/. 5. Point of contact: MNCC - askmncc@navy.mil or 1-833-330-MNCC (6622). 6. Released by Vice Admiral Richard J. Cheeseman Jr., N1.// BT #0001 NNNN CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED/
