      I don't know when they started providing more info and again mind you that I haven't looked at the precepts in a long time but the below looks more detailed than from what I have seen in the past. 6. Area Tours 7. Record Review 8. Adverse Information Otherwise, again from way back, the biggest complaint was that the precepts were useless.

      2023 BOB FELLER ACT OF VALOR AWARDS

      CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED// ROUTINE R 281201Z MAR 23 MID200080859024U FM CNO WASHINGTON DC TO NAVADMIN INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC//DNS// BT UNCLAS NAVADMIN 081/23 PASS TO OFFICE CODES: INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC//DNS// SUBJ/2023 BOB FELLER ACT OF VALOR AWARDS// MSGID/GENADMIN/CNO WASHINGTON DC/DNS/MAR// RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN solicits nominations for the eleventh annual Bob Feller Act of Valor Award for a Chief Petty Officer (CPO) and for the Junior Sailor Peer-to-Peer Mentorship Chapter Award for both afloat and ashore commands. 2. Background. The Bob Feller Act of Valor Foundation established a prestigious award in 2013, named in honor of Major League Baseball (MLB) pitcher, National Baseball Hall of Fame (NBHOF) inductee, and Navy veteran Bob Feller. Mr. Feller enlisted in the Navy shortly after the attack on Pearl Harbor while he played for Cleveland, where he served onboard USS Alabama (BB 60) as a Gun Captain. During his time onboard the ship, he fought in both World War II theaters, earning eight battle stars. Mr. Feller was released from active-duty having earned the rank of Chief Petty Officer (CPO). 3. Award. This unique award is intended to recognize a representative from three critical areas of Mr. Feller's life: his MLB career, his service in the Navy as a CPO, and his enshrinement in the NBHOF. Accordingly, the award will be presented to one active MLB player, one CPO, and one member of the NBHOF. The Bob Feller Act of Valor Foundation will also recognize a group of Sailors, 18-25 years-old, who have most effectively worked together as a team (in either a personal or professional capacity) to promote peer-to-peer mentorship and a reduction in Sailor destructive decision making and behavior in both afloat and ashore categories. The awards will be presented at the Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C. on 16 November 2023. 4. Eligibility and selection criteria. Nominees for the CPO award must be a CPO (E7), active or reserve, and must be outstanding military professionals and leaders in their communities. The following selection criteria for Navy nominees have been prescribed by the Bob Feller Act of Valor Foundation and are based upon the principles by which Mr. Feller lived his life. Nominees must: a. Be outstanding leaders in the performance of all professional responsibilities and serve as an example to peers and subordinates as inspirational leaders. Nominees must display good character and humility in their achievements. b. Demonstrate community leadership through volunteer service, holding leadership positions within the organizations they serve. Display a genuine desire to be better today than they were yesterday, and better tomorrow than they are today. Provide an outstanding example of character and dedication to service for all to emulate. c. Put the needs of others before the needs or wants of themselves. This may be documented through evaluations and awards. Both should show they led in the Navy or in their community to benefit the professional and personal development of others. Accomplishments or achievements must be above and beyond the scope of their primary responsibilities. d. Show unyielding support of the United States of America and fellow service men and women by having participated in patriotic events that celebrate all who serve our great nation. These events should be documented individually in the nomination to show the depth of participation in various events over the past three years. e. Above all else, prove to be beyond reproach in the manner in which they conduct themselves, treat others, and live by the Navy core values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment. 5. Nominations for the Junior Sailor Peer-to-Peer Mentorship Chapter Awards (afloat and ashore) can be any group of Sailors 18-25 years- old, who have worked effectively as a team to enhance their command's mission and community's success in a manner consistent with the high ideals and personal example of Bob Feller. Nominated teams of Sailors must consist of junior Sailors who have worked together to promote peer-to-peer mentorship and a reduction in Sailor destructive decision making and behavior. Nominations must reflect accomplishments achieved during the 2023 Fiscal Year. Nomination packages must reflect: a. How the leadership of nominated junior Sailors has provided an example that others desire to emulate and develops a desire for other Sailors to participate in peer-to-peer mentoring. Provide the total number of 18-25 year-old Sailors onboard, the total number of Sailors involved in the peer-to-peer mentoring program, along with the names, rates, and ranks of the Sailors being recognized. Provide the name of the group or team of Sailors (e.g., USS SHIP Junior Petty Officer Association) through which the nominated Sailors worked and describe the group's composition, function, and mission. b. Community leadership through volunteer service and a genuine desire to be better today than they were yesterday, and better tomorrow than they are today. Outstanding examples of character and dedication to service for all to emulate may be documented in submitted letters of appreciation and documented proof of community service hours in the nomination package. c. The group put the needs of others before the needs or wants of themselves. This may be substantiated through awards or evaluations that show actions were performed that are above and beyond their primary scope of responsibilities in the Navy or in their community to benefit the professional and personal development of others. Provide examples of special programs that were promoted with a description of the event and the level of participation and impact that enabled the greater success of others. d. Unyielding support of the United States of America and fellow service men and women by having participated in patriotic events that celebrate all who serve our great nation. These events should be documented individually in the nomination to show the depth of participation in various events. e. The group is, above all else, beyond reproach in the manner in which they conduct themselves, treat others, and live the Navy core values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment. 6. Travel and lodging. Travel to and from as well as lodging at the award site will be the responsibility of the award winner's command. For group recognition awards, consideration should be given to remote participation and/or acceptance by a representative on behalf of the award winning group in order to minimize travel costs. 7. Nominations. Fleet Master Chiefs from Commander, U.S. Fleet Forces Command (USFFC), Commander, U.S. Pacific Fleet (COMPACFLT), Commander, U.S. Naval Forces Europe-U.S. Naval Forces Africa (CNE-CNA), Chief of Naval Personnel (CNP), and the Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV) Command Master Chief (for direct-report Echelon 2 commands) will each nominate one CPO and up to two (one ashore and one afloat) Junior Sailor peer-to-peer mentoring groups from their area of responsibility. 8. Nomination packages. Nomination packages must contain four elements: a. Commanding Officer (CO) endorsement. Each nominee's CO must endorse the nomination and express a commitment to facilitate the nominee's attendance at the award ceremony, if selected. b. Narrative description. Substantiate the nominee's or group's embodiment of the award criteria specified above. This may include quantitative and qualitative data. Anecdotal evidence, such as newspaper articles, letters of commendation and appreciation, and other recognition may be included. c. Nominee biography and photo or photo of the group's participants. Group pictures should include as many participating members as possible. If chosen as the award recipient, the nominee's biography along with a high-resolution photo will be used in printed and online material to publicize and document the award ceremony. The biography and photo should be similar to those commonly associated with Navy leader biographies and official portrait photos. d. Evaluations. CPO nomination packages should include the nominee's evaluations from the past three years. 9. Submission procedures. Nominations must be received by 15 June 2023. Nominations will be submitted electronically to the applicable point of contact. 10. Selection process.
