Gets weirder when people don't know the words, especially when some Chief is trying to show off. Army has their own creed too for NCOs, one of them tried to show off and out of the 8 or so NCOs in the room only one knew the words. I've never heard a command say their creeds without it sounding like a group of zombies in a cult.

Here's a question for people that got out recently; I'm trying to figure out exactly wtf is going to happen with my healthcare when I separate, and obviously I'm doing this super late in the process because the Navy has trained me to do everything at the last minute. I'm officially out on Sunday, I start both the reserves and my federal job on Monday. Federal healthcare won't kick in for a couple of weeks and according to my reserve transition guy he won't actually contact me about anything reserve related for a couple weeks after my separation date. I looked at TAMP but it doesn't seem like I'm eligible based on the TAMP website which says: The four categories for TAMP eligibility are: Members involuntarily separated from active duty and their eligible family members; National Guard and Reserve members, collectively known as the Reserve Component (RC), separated from active duty after being called up or ordered in support of a contingency operation for an active duty period of more than 30 days and their family members; Members separated from active duty after being involuntarily retained in support of a contingency operation and their family members; and Members separated from active duty following a voluntary agreement to stay on active duty for less than one year in support of a contingency mission and their family members. Normally I wouldn't be freaking out but my wife scheduled an appointment for my son that can't really be moved around due to the nature of it.

That said, it doesn't guarantee certain coverage as I recently found out. Talk to the Tricare folks in your region and they'll be able to help, but I found out that I wasn't in a place covered my Tricare Prime and so was downgraded to Tricare Standard. I also had to pick up reserve dental insurance because I somehow didn't have ADDP and so it didn't transfer to TAMP.

Also, when you start as a fed, you can set your effective date to be the day you start working. You have coverage from day one as long as you enroll within 30 days.

I don't know if anyone was on the Enterprise during the time of The Most Boring Captain In The World, but CAPT Mewborne picked up RDML, just saw the naval message. I guess if you suck dick long enough and take lovely hot-fill billets eventually you will be advanced, regardless of whether commands you were in charge of had multiple suicides and complaints about garbage command climate and morale.

He's been the Director of Maritime Operations (a 2-star billet, though he is RDML) since at least August at Fleet Forces. I watched him eviscerate a brief given to him by the oldest SEAL in the Navy (an O-6) and from what I've gathered through the FOPS director, FCC Director, and my own briefs - he's a loving complete pain in the rear end.

I'm in a Mobile Construction Battalion, no babysitting thankfully, we're hanging with PWD and doing some projects with them and figuring out what else we can put some proposals together for. Beyond that we are just being amazed at how air wing personnel aren't subject to appearance regulations

I can't remember which chief was on the fantail, but he told me to get the line off quickly. We had already gotten the line completely wound on the bits and I was the only one trying to take them off. I was pretty close but as soon as it snapped I just dropped the line. I forget which port were in, but I think it was language problem with the tug.

I thought BMC Wesley was always mad. I'm the rust on the hatch and stanley's shiny boots. I always had fun line handling as long as it wasn't raining. Edit:  I couldn't find a better picture of the art and it pissed me off when they painted over it.

We are just in the 7th fleets AOR, I guess the NECC task force commander had the presence of mind to make our restrictions even more ridiculous in anticipation of this kind of thing I can only assume a master chief or skipper murder would just confine all enlisted to base

Anyone know if there is some mechanism where the RAPIDS/DEERS office can do a temporary dependent ID with essentially zero forms of identification? My wife came out to visit me at a TAD location, and managed to leave her wallet with all forms of ID in it on the train. All her forms of non photo ID (SS Card, Birth Cert) are back in Hawaii, at our house on base. She does have the power of attorney to get DEERS/RAPIDS stuff done back home, but her state ID will take a few weeks to get replaced via the mail order process. Again, living on base, so even getting a visitors pass to get home is hampered by having nothing with a photo =/

Good ol' Baltimore DC area where it probably won't surface for weeks, if ever =/ It looks like in the actual instruction for RAPIDS offices, there is a paragraph saying the photo in DEERS is sufficient to prove identity. Now the hard part is getting a RAPIDS office to do that. On a Monday. With no appointment.

Not sure if they do this for dependents but doesn't ID office require biometric scanning to confirm? It's better than a photo.
