Detailing Pointers
  • Use your Career Counselors for assistance.  If there are questions they cannot answer, call your detailer.
  • When leaving a phone message for your detailer, speak clearly and slowly, and don’t forget to leave a contact number.
  • A secret security clearance is required for all special program assignments (sea and shore).
  • Overseas screening Letter of Intent (LOI) is no longer issued to sailors. Refer to NAVADMIN 088-18
  • Update your contact information on My Navy Assignment.  Updating your contact information will enable your Detailer to communicate more effectively with you while negotiating for orders.
  • Increased Distribution Authority guidance is discussed in NAVADMIN 058/14.
  • We are a mobile force! The Navy needs flexible sailors to tackle unique challenges throughout the world.  Plan on moving and changing geographical locations during your career.
  • Please note that NAVADMIN 231/17 requires Detailers to fill requisitions with qualified Sailors, even if it is during a Sailor’s first window of negotiations.
