THIS NAVADMIN, IN CONJUNCTION WITH REF A AND EFFORTS TO ADDRESS SHORT-TERM MANNING ISSUES IN OUR DEPLOYING FORCES, ANNOUNCES THE LIMITED DIRECTED DETAILING PROGRAM WHICH WILL ALLOW THE REASSIGNMENT OF SAILORS ON SHORE DUTY WHO HAVE CRITICAL SKILLS REQUIRED BY OUR IMMINENT DEPLOYERS TO SEA DUTY. THIS ACTION IS EXPECTED TO IMPACT BETWEEN 200 AND 400 SAILORS NAVY WIDE. 2. SAILORS WHO HAVE COMPLETED A MINIMUM OF 24 MONTHS ON SHORE DUTY AT THE TIME OF ORDER EXECUTION MAY BE CONTACTED BY THEIR DETAILER AND DIRECTED TO A SEA DUTY ASSIGNMENT PRIOR TO THEIR PROJECTED ROTATION DATE (PRD). DIRECT DETAILED SAILORS WILL BE FINANCIALLY COMPENSATED IN A LUMP SUM, CALCULATED ACCORDING TO MONTHS OF SHORE DUTY CURTAILED. 3. LIMITED DIRECTED DETAILING WILL BE ACCOMPLISHED AS FOLLOWS: A. TO MINIMIZE THE NUMBER OF DIRECT DETAILED SAILORS, DETAILERS WILL FILL AS MANY OF THE CRITICAL JOBS AS POSSIBLE BY FULLY UTILIZING THE AUTHORIZED TRANSFER WINDOW THAT INCLUDES MOVING SAILORS THREE MONTHS PRIOR TO, OR FOUR MONTHS BEYOND, THEIR PRD MONTH. THIS IS THE NORMAL AUTHORIZED DETAILING WINDOW, IT IS NOT CONSIDERED DIRECTED DETAILING AND WILL NOT RESULT IN ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL COMPENSATION. B. DETAILERS WILL COMPILE A LIST OF SHORE DUTY SAILORS BASED ON SHORE DUTY COMMENCEMENT DATE, SAILORS THAT HAVE BEEN ON SHORE DUTY THE LONGEST WILL GENERALLY BE UTILIZED FIRST AND GEOGRAPHIC STABILITY WILL BE MAINTAINED WHENEVER POSSIBLE. SAILORS THAT ALREADY POSSESS A REQUIRED NEC WILL BE CHOSEN UNLESS TRAINING IS AVAILABLE AND CAN BE COMPLETED PRIOR TO THE REQUIRED REPORTING DATE. C. NO SHORE COMMANDS OR SPECIFIC JOBS ARE EXEMPT FROM LIMITED DIRECTED DETAILING. HOWEVER, SAILORS CURRENTLY FILLING THE FOLLOWING BILLETS OR AT THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS WILL ONLY BE CONSIDERED AFTER ALL OTHERS: RECRUIT DIVISION COMMANDER; ATTACH, RECRUITERS AND INSTRUCTORS, CAMP DAVID, STATE DEPARTMENT, SPECWAR AND SPECOPS SHORE COMMANDS, AND AFLOAT TRAINING GROUPS. SAILORS WITH A NUCLEAR NEC (33XX) WILL CONTINUE TO BE DETAILED PER NAVAL NUCLEAR PROPULSION PROGRAM PRIORITIES. D. ONCE A SAILOR IS IDENTIFIED TO FILL A CRITICAL JOB THAT REQUIRES SHORE DUTY CURTAILMENT, BOTH THE LOSING COMMAND AND THE SAILOR WILL BE CONTACTED BY PERS-40. PERS-4 WILL BE THE FLAG REVIEW AUTHORITY FOR ANY COMMAND REQUESTING FLAG REVIEW. E. HIGH YEAR TENURE (HYT) WAIVERS FOR PURPOSES OF COMPLETING DEPLOYMENTS WILL BE APPROVED AND PRD WILL BE SET TO THE PRESCRIBED SEA TOUR (PST) BASED ON THE SAILOR'S SEA SHORE FLOW REQUIREMENT. F. UPON RECEIPT OF ORDERS, FINANCIAL COMPENSATION WILL BE PAID IN THE FORM OF A LUMP SUM PAYMENT. SAILORS WHO ARE UNABLE TO EXECUTE THEIR ORDERS WILL HAVE THEIR FINANCIAL COMPENSATION RECOUPED. 4. DECISIONS AFFECTING THE CAREERS AND LIVES OF OUR SAILORS AND THEIR FAMILIES ARE NOT TAKEN LIGHTLY. OUR AIM IS TO CAUSE THE LEAST AMOUNT OF DISRUPTION TO THE CAREERS OF OUR SAILORS AND THEIR FAMILIES, WHILE SUSTAINING FLEET MANNING AND ENSURING OUR NAVY REMAINS MISSION READY ACROSS THE BROAD SPECTRUM OF MARITIME OPERATIONS. LIMITED DIRECTED DETAILING IS MEANT TO BE AN INTERIM POLICY TO IMPROVE FLEET MANNING AND READINESS BY FILLING THE CRITICAL GAPS WE ARE EXPERIENCING AT SEA WITH THE RIGHT SAILORS. WE WILL CONTINUE TO EVALUATE THIS POLICY, ADJUST AS NECESSARY, AND REFINE LONGER TERM SOLUTIONS THAT WILL HELP PROPERLY MAN THE NAVY AT SEA AND ON SHORE. 5. RELEASED BY VICE ADMIRAL S. R.
