Married or thinking of getting Married as a DUAL MILITARY Couple?

MILPERSMAN 1300-1000 Allows DUAL MILITARY Couples to be Co-Located together. Detailers have up to 12 months to allow for Co-Location for married couples. Be advised that first Term Sailors who are married and request Co-Location may not be eligible for the typical 1 at Sea and 1 at shore. Please review the MILPERSMAN to understand any restrictions there may be. For Dual Mil married couples who are not first term Sailors, Detailers will attempt to place one Member at Sea and another Member at Shore with matching PRDs. Restrictions may apply for various reasons. If you have questions, contact your Detailer!
 

My Navy Assignment and YOU!

Please verify your information on MNA. If you do not have updated Email/Phone number, it can become difficult for Detailers to contact you. Your utilization of MNA is important to the process and allows Detailers to do their best when attempting to detail you to the correct location or command that you would like. You are not guaranteed 3 NEGOTIATION WINDOWS. There are times when we do not have enough Sailors to fill the Billets being advertised. In the event that we need to direct you to a billet, we will attempt to contact you and inform you of the decision. Keeping in constant communication with your Detailer is vital to the process and keeps us up to date on your career/personal intentions.
