Schools at Naval Air Station Sigonella remained closed Tuesday and some services were suspended while officials evaluated damage from the severe weather that continued to batter southern Italy.

Power had been partially restored to a portion of the base that includes runways and operations, said Lt. Drake Greer, an NAS Sigonella spokesman.

      Navy fills nearly all E-9 billets with new Senior Enlisted Marketplace

      The Navy filled nearly all of its master chief petty officer billets this promotion cycle — the first one ever to utilize the Senior Enlisted Marketplace — as the service shifts to billet-based advancement to reduce personnel gaps at sea. The Senior Enlisted Marketplace, introduced this year, requires senior chief petty officers to apply for and accept orders for a specific job in order to advance to master chief. That’s a departure from the previous system, where a selection board voted on who was most eligible and qualified to advance.

      Early Ford carrier maintenance costs lower than planned, Navy says

      This story has been corrected to state that the Navy expected the Ford class to save $4 billion over the total life of a ship compared to the Nimitz class, and now believes it may see $5 billion in savings over the life of the ship. ARLINGTON, Va. ­— The first-in-class aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford may cost less over its life than planned because of reduced maintenance costs, a program manager said today at an American Society of Naval Engineers conference here.

      In-Service Procurement Program Selectee

      Being selected for the In-Service Procurement Program (IPP) was a tremendous honor, and to this day I don’t take the opportunity for granted. I had an extremely supportive network of leaders, friends, and family throughout the entire process, to all of whom I am extremely grateful. The first semester of law school has been a whirlwind, but it’s been a really amazing experience so far, and I’m looking forward for what's to come. Looking back on when I enlisted in 2017, I really had no idea what I wanted out of the Navy, let alone how much it had to offer me. I’ve always wanted to practice law, but attending college, much less law school, always seemed like a bit of a pipe dream. As I began pursuing my degree in my second year, I started to really gravitate towards the idea of the IPP program. From there, every undergrad class I took and everything I did in the Navy was really geared toward building my IPP package and making myself a competitive candidate.
