In a location where weather can turn severe at a moment's notice, one team remains prepared to keep Team Charleston alert and ready for the always changing conditions around the base.

The 437th Operations Support Squadron Weather Flight provides critical, timely and accurate weather intelligence in support of both the Joint Base Charleston - Air Base and Weapons Station. They also provide mission-execution briefings, seasonal climatology briefings and local weather familiarization briefings upon request.

The four-man shop consists of three staff sergeants, who are weather forecasters or Air Force Specialty Code 1W0X1s, and the flight chief.

Duties and Responsibilities These 1W0X1s observe, record and disseminate weather data and information.

"Essentially, resource protection is what we do on a day-to-day basis," said Staff Sgt. Marlyn Daust, 437th OSS Weather Flight weather forecaster. "The 'lightning within five' or any kind of weather warning you receive is what we provide the base and aircraft. We're able to brief pilots, both on the ground and in the sky, from Georgia through North Carolina. We have

a radio-communication system, or Pilot-to-Metro Service, we use to talk with pilots as they are flying their aircraft. This way we can give them upto-the-minute weather, if they request it."

By using satellite and radar imagery, computer-generated graphics and weather-communication equipment and instruments, these weather forecasters can analyze atmospheric and space data and information.

"For the most part, we work cooperatively with the National Weather Service, the Federal Aviation Administration observer and tower personnel," said Daust. "We use their real-time radar imagery nearly every day."

Also, the Weather Flight issues warnings and advisories to alert users to mission critical weather.

The Weather Flight works cooperatively with the regional forecasting office at Barksdale Air Force Base, La. They interact with at least one forecaster to form a better forecast, said Daust.

McPherson added, the back-up system allows for coverage 24-hours-aday, seven days a week.

"Someone at Barksdale is always keeping an eye on JB Charleston and stands ready to issue any warning or make calls," said McPherson.

"We get plenty of calls about the flag condition reminders on your computers ... Weather Flight does not handle that," Daust said. "We send out the warnings for tornadoes, severe winds, severe hail, freezing See Weather Flight (and photos) on Page 3

AFPAAS accounts for Airmen during disasters

By Airman 1st Class Tom Brading Joint Base Charleston Public Affairs

The date is Aug. 29, 2005, and Hurricane Katrina makes landfall on the Gulf Coast. The Category 4 storm ravages the area, destroying everything in its wake, including the city of New Orleans, La. Thousands of people desperately flee the region, but many are not so lucky. Through the chaos, family members are separated from each other.

Many children and elderly were among the nearly 2,000 people who died in that hurricane and subsequent flooding.

The nation could only watch in horror as images of lost and scared children, and thousands of newly homeless were replayed on television sets across the country.

Staff Sgt. Michael Wise, 628th Force Support Squadron, Air Force Personnel Accountability and Assessment System moderator, was a young Airman stationed at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss., during Hurricane Katrina. He spent countless hours volunteering and helping in the clean-up.

"One major problem the Department of Defense had during Katrina was accountability for its people," said Wise. "Commanders couldn't get 100 percent accountability of their Airmen and their families. We need accountability for

many reasons; most importantly, safety, but also, if you know who isn't actually accounted for, you can dedicate more time to finding them."

Hurricane Katrina is just one example of a recent natural disaster. Other disasters have come and gone throughout the years, requiring the Air Force to develop a system to effectively account for its members and dependents.

One program, AFPAAS, helps keep people in touch during a crisis and Joint Base Charleston, in conjunction with the Air Force, has recently been conducting exercises to test the AFPAAS system.

AFPAAS is a web-based application used to account for and assess the needs of the Air Force total force including active-duty Airmen, selected Reserve members, Department of the Air Force and non-appropriated fund civilian employees, Air Force contractors overseas and family members.

"In the wake of any manmade or natural disaster, AFPAAS can help provide 100 percent accountability of all personnel and dependents," said Wise. "My job is to ensure 100 percent accountability for all active-duty Air Force

units at JB Charleston.

"The program is a wonderful way to account for all Airmen," Wise continued. "During the wildfires in Colorado earlier this year, the Air Force implemented AFPAAS. Within one day of implementation, we are able to account for all Airmen and their dependents on our installation.

It's things like AFPAAS that will keep the Air Force safe in the face of whatever incidents come our way."

According to Wise, all Airmen are responsible for letting their command know if they have any dependents affected in the crisis area, such as New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. Airmen should only account for dependents enrolled in their Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System account.

"AFPAAS allows commanders and units to account, assess, manage and monitor the recovery process and wellness of their Airmen and families," said Wise. "Having information available to the command will help keep everything organized, which benefits the safety for all Airmen at JB Charleston and Air Force wide."

COMMENTARY

Commentary by Maj. Michael Meridith 18th Air Force public affairs

SCOTT AFB, ILL – "We bring the word 'rapid' to rapid global mobility. We do it for allies, we do it for partners, and we do it for friends. We do it because we have to, because it is what Americans do, and we do it better than anybody," said Lt. Gen. Mark Ramsay when he assumed command of the 18th Air Force here Sept. 23, 2011. Since that time the command's Airmen have continued to embody that creed, answering the call to help others prevail in an often challenging operational environment.

During Ramsay's command, the Airmen of the Air Force's largest Numbered Air Force (and Air Mobility Command's only NAF) have excelled in their global mission of strategic airlift and air refueling, flying more than 87,000 airlift sorties; transporting more than 1.5 million passengers, approximately 10,500 patients, and 500,000 tons of cargo; and offloading more than 297 million pounds of fuel in support of commanders worldwide. But these numbers only tell part of the story.

"The most important parts of the story of our global mobility enterprise are represented in the lives of the aeromedical evacuation patients that are alive today because of our Airmen, or the troops at remote bases in Afghanistan that were able to accomplish their mission after we airdropped critical supplies, or the air crews that were able to continue and complete their critical missions when we were there to refuel them. We live by a simple premise: nothing happens unless something moves.

It is why we exist," Ramsay said.

A potent example of the power of that enterprise came early in Ramsay's tenure as he oversaw AMC's efforts to finish support of NATO's Operation Unified Protector over Libya. Through a total force effort of active duty, Air Force

Reserve, and Air National Guard Airmen, 18th Air Force tankers flew nearly 4,700 sorties offloading more than 173 million lbs. of fuel to 12,000 aircraft - by far, the majority of fuel provided for the operation. However, according to Ramsay those numbers pale in comparison to their impact: thousands of innocent civilian lives saved from former Gadhafi regime attrocities.

Ramsay's time as commander was also characterized by fiscal uncertainty for the military and the nation. In the midst of those uncertainties, 18th Air Force Airmen once again "did it better", with innovative planning efforts that opened a historic new non-stop northern polar overflight route from the U.S. to Afghanistan last September. By cutting time off of traditional routing the new route not only enhances the ability of air mobility forces to rapidly respond worldwide but supports ongoing Department of Defense efficiency initiatives by providing both an increase in airlift velocity along with a reduction in fuel consumption and our mobility footprint.

Another effort enhancing the mobility air forces capability to respond rapidly across the globe was the October 2011 surge of AMC's C-5 Galaxy fleet. This historic "surge" of the nation's largest military airlifters was a total force effort that more than doubled the fleet's normal day-today workload, demonstrating the global mobility enterprise's flexibility and readiness in times of very high demand on its capacity.

The flexibility demonstrated by the surge was an important key to the success of other major accomplishments of the mobility enterprise, including last year's massive effort returning more than 34,000 tons of equipment and 95,000 personnel from Iraq at the end of Operation New Dawn; multimodal operations worldwide which partnered air mobility forces with their sea and land counterparts to efficiently and rapidly move Army

Combat Aviation Brigades in and out of Afghanistan; and Mobility Support Advisory missions in South America and Africa that enhanced U.S. relations with partner nations by enhancing those partner's own mobility capabilities.

"In what we do, you have to be able to move quickly and adapt to rapidly changing requirements. We can do that thanks to a team of amazing innovative Airmen who look around corners, analyze what they see on the horizon, and set our mobility enterprise for success," said Ramsay.

The success of the 18th Air Force team is in part a result of the strength that comes from its diversity, said the general, who praised the command's seamless integration of Air Reserve Component and active duty Airmen. Enhancing that integration has been a continuing focus under Ramsay's tenure, highlighted by a Total Force Integration Summit in April, in which Gen. Norton Schwartz, Chief of Staff of the Air Force noted, "Total Force Integration allows us to leverage Air Reserve Component experience, improve access to aircraft, encourage retention, and increase total force effectiveness."

When Gen. Ramsay departs the command on August 6 bound for his next assignment as Director, Joint Staff Force Structure, Resources, and Assessment Directorate, he will take with him a feeling of accomplishment and a great deal of pride in the men and women he says he has been honored to serve with here.

"It was a humbling privilege to serve with the amazing Airmen of this command. I am very proud of what we accomplished together - and what the Airmen of the 18th Air Force will continue to do for our nation, Allies and partners.

There is nothing more rewarding than answering the call to help others, and by so doing we make America stronger and our fellow citizens safer," Ramsay said.

Healthy competition leads to success for all

Commentary by Cmdr. Patrick Boyce Navy Consolidated Brig Charleston executive officer

Being the best at what we do is a value shared by each of the armed services.

The Air Force covers this in its "Excellence in all we do" value, while the Navy covers it in its "Commitment" value. Improvement of individuals and commands is something all the services devote tremendous resources to. Individuals are called upon to further their qualifications, their education and their physical fitness levels. Commands are called upon to have the highest mission completion rates, best inspection results and highest advancement rates.

Motivations toward improvement stem from a myriad of incentives, several of which include money, medals, time off, promotions and wider public recognition. The larger the pool of people desiring those achievement incentives, the greater the competition and the better the results should be.

Leaders need to be vigilant in our continual quest for success because the demand for high achievement in the military can lead to the following: win/loss strategies, cheating and/or parochialism. Competition to achieve can be a worthy tool that we should employ; however, we need to evaluate milestone progression to ensure it facilitates organizational mission accomplishment and that it ensures it lives up to the top of our core values - "Honor."

The quest for achievement often begins with an individual's improvement as the end goal. As one proceeds, it can mature to support an organizational level goal or it can evolve, as Stephen Covey would describe it, to a competitive "I win, you lose" goal. This is an unhealthy method of competition. An example of this might be an Airman or Sailor saying or thinking "I studied all the books about how to fix this engine. I can fix this engine faster and better than my squadron mate, therefore I will get recognized and promoted faster. He should have studied hard too."

That second squadron mate sits around fumbling through the books and that second engine does not get fixed until the studious maintainer comes by to fix it himself. Improvement can be personal but it should include others when possible. In this example, the more studious maintainer could have approached the problem by saying, "Work with me on this engine. I'll teach you how to fix it. When we're done with this one, we'll go work on yours.

You can fix it while I observe and quality check it."

In these examples, one maintainer's gain did not have to equate to another's loss. The second example was win-win for everyone. The studious maintainer got an extra hand to read checklist procedures or simply to hold a flashlight, while the second maintainer learned a skill. This competitive process was elevated from the individual's gain to the whole maintenance department's gain.

The desire to succeed can also lead our service members to cheat. The saying, "If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying," has been used too often and the mere joking of it should be a warning indicator to any leader. Deliberately falsifying a record is clearly cheating, but sometimes it can evolve from distorting the truth to the point that a reasonable third party would not recognize it.

Objective metrics should be used in evaluating success; however, we should be aware that statistics show that having objective metrics (as opposed to "fuzzy" metrics) can increase the likelihood of cheating.

Two of the most significant indicators of cheating are the importance of success and the lack of time, money or equipment to do a job properly. We often pride ourselves in the military with our ability to excel under pressure. Outstanding performance while operating under tight timelines and scarce resources makes for easy bullets in any award certificate or evaluation. Commands need to be aware of the temptations to cheat or to cut corners as federal budgets tighten, promotion rates slow and operational tempo continues to be high. We are all susceptible to that temptation and we need to keep each other honest.

Pride comes to those that whok hard and achieve a high degree of success.

That pride sometimes brings about parochialism. There are often many ways to solve a problem. In the end, the best course of action is often not one derived in the first drafts, based on each developer's personal area of expertise. It is often a blend of the best aspects of the varying courses of action.

For example, what is the best way to supply a war effort? C-17's? Pre-positioned cargo ships? Local theater contracts?

The best answer probably takes advantage of all that each option provides while mitigating their weaknesses. "Sticking to your guns" is often heralded as strength but it should be tempered if it leads your highest organizations to less than optimal solutions. If you have ever served in a joint command, then you may well have seen those individuals who always tout a service parochial solution. Those individuals are usually correct about one-fourth of the time. As leaders, we need to instill pride in ourselves, our commands and our services, but we need to be aware that this pride may serve the needs of lower echelons at the detriment of higher more strategic callings.

The current Olympic spirit brings about an increased aura of competition and achievement. National heroes are made. The determination of these athletes is inspiring. We should take advantage of this competitive spirit to rejuvenate our own internal competitive drive. Stronger individuals should serve to make stronger commands, bases, and services. We should have the courage to pursue excellence. We should have the courage to challenge our peers. We should also have the courage to take a deeper examination to ensure that our achievements are honorably serving the best interests of ourselves, our military families and our nation.

My job is prosecuting sexual assault

Commentary by Col. Don Christensen Chief, government trial and appellate counsel

WASHINGTON – Here's a simple truth ... sexual offenders reject our core values of integrity, service and excellence, in favor of following their own base, undisciplined, criminal desires.

Most sexual assaults committed by Airmen are "blue on blue," or Airmen victimizing other Airmen. So in addition to rejecting our core values, these undisciplined Airmen reject the Wingman concept that we prize in the Air Force.

They represent a direct threat to unit morale, good order, and discipline. They degrade combat readiness but with the combined efforts of command, law enforcement and our team of prosecutors, they will be held accountable. Together, as a team, we will protect other Airmen and protect our strength and combat readiness as the world's greatest Air Force.

Detecting and prosecuting sexual assault is our priority. Recently, we posted on the internet sig-

nificant Air Force sexual assault prosecutions. The posting may be found here: http://www.afjag.af.mil/sexualassaultprosecution/i ndex.asp. As you can tell from a quick review of this information, we will prosecute sexual offenders anywhere they are found. From reviewing these cases, you can see sexual assault in the Air Force carries substantial penalties.

Our partners in AFOSI thoroughly investigate each allegation to provide commanders with timely, accurate, and prosecutable evidence. They pass the ball to commanders, who call upon my team to prosecute the offender to the maximum extent allowed under law.

Our team of prosecutors is better than any you will see in the civilian community or on TV. I have 17 highly skilled senior trial prosecutors, who are selected from among hundreds of judge advocates for their top notch trial skills. They have the very best trial skills in the Air Force JAG Corps. They prosecute the Air Force's most serious courts-martial. Seven of my senior trial prose-

cutors have been identified as "Special Victim Unit (SVU)" prosecutors, due to their training and experience in combating sexual assault. They are dedicated to bringing justice to victims of sexual assault and ensuring commanders are able to appropriately hold offenders accountable.

In the typical case we prosecute, the accused Airman exploits his victim's intoxicated state to commit the sexual assault. We are very effective in prosecuting these offenders, and the law encourages us to prosecute Airmen who use alcohol to facilitate sexual assault of substantially incapacitated victims. Prosecuting this kind of case is one of our core specialties.

The Air Force has done a great job training Airmen about respecting other Airmen and not sexually abusing their fellow Airmen. Training can reach many Airmen who might be tempted to commit this crime. For others, who cannot be persuaded by training, my team, the Senior Trial Prosecutors - Special Victims Unit, stands at the ready to vindicate the victims.

"The interaction between the pilots and me is what I like most about my job," said Daust.

"Providing that one-on-one time to ensure the safety of the pilots and their crews gives me a big sense of self-fulfillment and a pride."

The Weather Flight has a typical 7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. work day, but this can change as quickly as lightning.

"If at any time we receive any severe criteria weather, we can transition to 24-hour support," Daust added.

"Severe thunderstorms can mean 50 knot winds, large hail greater than one-half inch or tornadoes.

"JB Charleston's weather is so unpredictable," said Daust. "It's really humid and Staff Sgt.

Technical Training All Air Force weather forecasters must complete the eight-month technical training at Keesler Air Force Base, Miss.

But, unlike most jobs in the Air Force, assignments for new weather troops are handled a little differently than other careers.

"After graduation from technical school, weather troops are assigned to one of the eight major Air Force Weather 'hubs' to undergo intensive on-the-job training for a period of 15 to 24 months," said Daust. "These hubs are major regional weather forecasting stations."

The Air Force Weather hub bases are: Barksdale Air Force Base, La., Shaw AFB, S.C., Davis-Monthan AFB, Ariz., Scott AFB, Ill., Sembach Air Base, Germany and Hickam AFB, Hawaii.

"It takes a lot of experience to deal with the weather," said Daust. "These hubs offer Airmen the way to learn so many different types of weather patterns.

So, when you get to a weather flight, you have that depth of experience."

So, the next time you see or hear, "lightning within five," you'll know where the phrase comes from and how important it is for not only personnel, but also for JB Charleston's aircraft.

Active Duty FY13 CPO results show six percent increase over FY12

Courtesy of Navy Personnel Command Public Affairs

MILLINGTON, Tenn. – Results from the Fiscal Year 13 Active Duty E7 Board were released July 31, and show Navy's force management initiatives are having positive effects.

Advancement opportunity for the FY13 board increased to 23.96 percent, nearly 6 percent more than FY12 as approximately 4,400 Sailors were selected from a pool nearly 19,000 candidates.

Notable opportunity this cycle included Logistics Specialist (Submarine) (LS grp 1) with 100 percent opportunity and 22 quotas.

Also showing strong opportunity was Yeoman (Submarine) (YN Grp 1) at 55.77 percent and 29 quotas from 33.93 with 19 quotas in FY12.

"While it is a high point for those Sailors selected for chief petty officer, the active and Reserve board's typically review records of more than 19,000 first class petty officers, which means a lot of Sailors will not be select-

ed, and that is very disappointing to some Sailors," said Navy Personnel Command Force Master Chief Jon Port. "The chain of command must communicate with those Sailors who did not get selected."

According to Port, command leadership should assist Sailors not selected by conducting a career development board. A CDB provides Sailors the opportunity to discuss their career progression, the health of their rating, and their short and long-term goals for the future.

"If we are straightforward yet supportive with our Sailors, they stand a much greater chance of following the advice given by their chain of command and ultimately attaining that next pay grade," he said.

NPC conducts almost 150 promotion and selection boards annually. Each board receives the official military records of personnel deemed eligible for consideration.

NHCC preps for major inspection Story and photo by Jeff Kelly Naval Health Clinic Charleston public affairs officer

Naval Health Clinic Charleston is scheduled to undergo a rigorous on-site survey from the Joint Commission between Aug. 7 and Aug. 9, 2012. A team of Joint Commission expert surveyors will evaluate NHCC for compliance with standards of care specific to the needs of patients, including infection prevention and control, leadership and medication management.

The Joint Commission is an accrediting agency that certifies hospitals and clinics as being safe and meeting important patient care standards. The commission evaluates and accredits nearly 15,000 health care organizations and programs in the U.S. The inspection is conducted every three years at U.S. Navy medical treatment facilities.

"Their findings will determine if our clinic will once again be accredited - a status that is important to our ability to attract patients and instill confidence in the services that we provide," said Capt. Mary Kim Kenney-Gutshall, NHCC commanding officer. "Meeting national standards strengthens public perception and communicates confidence in our ability to provide safe, quality, compassionate, patient and family centered care."

The Joint Commission's ambulatory care standards address

important functions relating to the care of patients and the management of an ambulatory care organization. The standards are developed in consultation with health care experts, providers, measurement experts and patients.

"Joint Commission accreditation is the gold seal for providing high quality patient care," said David Sartori, NHCC Quality Management director. "Achieving accreditation from the Joint Commission once again will be a team effort that will bring confidence to our patients and give us a framework to provide the best care possible. We have prepared as a team and I am confident that we will pass this inspection as a team.

We are ready for this inspection and excited for the opportunity to show what we can do."

If you are a NHCC patron, we would like your input.

In order for us to better serve your needs, please take the time to complete the following brief survey before 6 p.m., Aug. 6, 2012. No personal identifiers are included in this survey and all responses will remain anonymous. This survey should only take a few minutes of your time and can be found at: https://www.research.net/s/WXLSN6J If you would like to speak with a member of the Medical Inspector General team, please contact us at 1-800-637-6175, DSN 295-9019, or at MEDIGInspection@med.navy.mil.

Naval Health Clinic Charleston Commanding Officer, Capt. Mary Kim Kenney-Gutshall announces the inspection dates of an upcoming Joint Commission inspection to the staff of NHCC at Joint Base Charleston - Weapons Station, S.C., while displaying the accreditation seals awarded by the Joint Commission following their previous visit.

USAF Initiates voluntary limited loadmaster recall

By Debbie Gildea Air Force Personnel Center

JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO - RANDOLPH, Texas – Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard loadmasters may be eligible to apply for a limited period recall to extended active duty, Air Force Personnel Center officials announced here.

The loadmaster career field is chronically undermanned, said Senior Master Sgt. Marvin Daugherty, the AFPC accessions branch superintendent. Initiatives are underway to increase loadmaster manning levels from 82 to 95 percent by fiscal year 2014, he explained.

"While those initiatives are designed to address long-term loadmaster manning, this recall will help us address immediate combatant commander needs," he said. "We expect to bring a total of 110 ARC loadmasters on extended active duty during FY12 and FY13. They'll serve in active duty flying bil-

lets until manning initiatives mature."

Eligible applicants must be master sergeants or below, be current and qualified on their major weapon system, have less than 16 years of total active federal military service by the end of their extended active duty period, and have a current qualifying flying class III physical, said Daugherty.

Tours will be one or two years, during which time members will be eligible for deployment. While on extended active duty, ANG members will remain affiliated with their unit and will return to that unit when their active duty assignment ends.

AFR members who want to return to the Air Force Reserve will be able to enroll in the AFRC Clearinghouse, enabling command officials to see their intention to return to the Reserve. That will enable organizations that need to fill a position to see members' qualifications, Reserve officials said.

AFR members must have Air Force Reserve command operations director approval before coming on active duty, Daugherty said. In addition, ANG members may not be

Troopsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; investment in the JB Charleston Exchange pays off for entire community

Courtesy of the Army & Air Force Exchange Public Affairs

The JB Charleston Exchange is paying dividends in more ways than one as military members exercising their benefit by dining and shopping on base last year generated a dividend of $ 451,847.25.

These funds are critical to the Air Force Service's ability to enhance local programs and facilities including the JB Charleston - Air Base Aero Club, the Gaylor Dining Facility and Starlifter Lanes.

"Historically, roughly two-thirds of Exchange earnings are paid to Morale, Welfare and Recreation programs while the other third is used to build new stores or renovate existing facilities," said Common Orris, Charleston's Army and Air Force Exchange general manager. "As a result, authorized shoppers are essentially investing in a benefit that generates a healthy return by directly improving Air Force quality of life efforts."

With a mission to provide quality goods and services at competitively low prices and generate earnings to support quality of life efforts, the dual benefit the Exchange provides goes far beyond the clothes, electronics and snacks on shelves.

Shoppers who visit the Exchange, either online, at www.shopmyexchange.com or in person here at JB Charleston, actually help make the military community a better place to live and work. In fact, purchases made at Exchange operations in the past 10 years have provided more than $2.4 billion to military programs such as Youth Services, post functions, gyms and aquatic centers.

Exchange shoppers invited to 'Sound Off' Aug. 4 - 25

The Army & Air Force Exchange Service is constantly seeking opportunities to improve on the Exchange benefit. As part of this effort, the Department of Defense's oldest and largest Exchange service relies on an ongoing Customer Satisfaction Index to provide localized, real-time snapshots of how Exchange facilities are improving the value of the support provided to military and their families.

The survey, which addresses customer service, pricing, sales associate availability, merchandise assortment and many more key issues, is administered at one-fourth of Exchange main stores twice a year.

JB Charleston shoppers' opportunity to participate in the 2012 Customer Satisfaction

Index is coming to the Exchange Aug. 4 through 25. During this time, troops and their families are encouraged to visit the Exchange to provide feedback on locally available services. Beyond improving the Exchange benefit, shoppers who participate will also receive a coupon worth $5 off their next purchase at the Exchange.

"We want to hear from as many JB Charleston shoppers as possible," said Common Orris, Charleston's Army & Air Force Exchange general manager. "Efforts like the CSI are critical to not only improving the shopping experience, but also bolstering the dividend the Exchange annually delivers to the community as healthy exchange operations produce greater returns for military quality of life programs."

CPO early return to sea to provide Fleet with needed senior enlisted leaders Courtesy of the Chief of Naval Personnel Public Affairs

WASHINGTON – In order to ensure high priority senior enlisted leadership positions are manned in the Fleet, the Navy is updating E-7 to E-9 detailing business rules, officials announced in NAVADMIN 230/12, released July 26.

The CPO Early Return to Sea program is part of the Navy's coordinated effort to aggressively address gaps at sea and place Sailors with the right experience levels and skill sets into high-priority Fleet billets.

Under the program, the Navy will curtail the shore duty of selected senior enlisted Sailors of ranks E-7 to E-9, and detail them back to sea to fill operational billets that cannot be filled by rotating Sailors.

This program is an update to the previous CPO to Sea program, and is designed to ensure high-priority, senior leadership positions at sea are manned for operational readiness.

"Our Fleet needs senior Sailors who have the right skills and leadership experience to meet our critical at-sea missions," said Rear Adm. Tony Kurta, director of Military Plans and Policy. "The CPO Early Return to Sea program will help us ensure critical senior enlisted leadership is where we need it most."

Low Country Coin Club Summer Coin Show

Except to meet the most critical operational requirements, only Sailors who have completed at least 24 months of shore duty at the time of transfer will be considered for early return to sea.

The Navy will only involuntarily curtail a Sailor's shore duty orders to fill a needed requirement when there are no available chief petty officers in the projected rotation date window and there are no excess personnel on sea duty within the geographic area that can be reassigned.

To minimize the number of CPOs impacted, detailers will fill as many high priority sea duty billets as possible by fully utilizing the authorized transfer window, including moving Sailors three months prior to, or four months beyond their PRD month.

Candidates will be selected based on various factors including length of time on shore; recent advancement; fleet experience; NEC/skills held; type of previous sea duty; and remaining OBLISERV. Impact on the shore duty command's mission will also be evaluated. E8 and E9 Sailors may be chosen to fill vacant E-7, E-8 or E-9 billets, and E-7 Sailors may be chosen to fill vacant E-8 billets.

As detailers will attempt to fill all billets using voluntary measures first, CPOs should consider applying for the

Voluntary Sea Duty Program, which provides several incentives, including geographic choice or stability and High Year Tenure waiver consideration. Also, depending on rating, paygrade and skills, sea duty incentive pay may also be available.

"We understand that the force management decisions we make directly affect the careers and lives of our Sailors and their families," said Kurta. "Our goal is to cause the least amount of disruption to the careers of our Sailors and their families, while ensuring the Fleet has the manning required to remain mission-ready. Fleet readiness requirements will ultimately be the guiding factor in Sailor assignments."

Commands will have the opportunity to request a Flag review if there are extenuating circumstances that preclude execution of the sea duty assignment. According to the NAVADMIN, requests to retire (transfer to the fleet reserve) from CPOs selected for Early Return to Sea may be disapproved.
