2.  Background.  Per reference (a), officer communities may designate a 
limited number of billets as milestone billets that represent positions of 
leadership analogous to command.  Similar to the command screening process, 
milestone screening identifies individuals whose records indicate that they 
possess the leadership abilities required to successfully execute the duties 
associated with Navy Medicine (NAVMED) career milestone billets.  Chief, 
Bureau of Medicine and Surgery has designated certain NAVMED billets as 
career milestone billets.  Career milestone billets include commander (O-5) 
and captain (O-6), Director for Administration (DFA), Officer in Charge 
(OIC), and Director of Nursing Services (DNS) opportunities that require 
specialized healthcare leadership expertise, experience, and a documented 
career progression that prepares an officer for the duties and 
responsibilities associated with these positions.

3.  Reference (b) provides application procedures, executive medicine 
required criteria, available positions, and business rules and will be posted 
on NAVMED website at www.med.navy.mil/directives/Pages/NAVMEDForms.aspx/.
