TPUs

Transient Personnel Units (TPU) / Transient Personnel Detachments (TPD) serve only transient personnel (accounting category code 3XX) on permanent change of station (PCS) orders to, or separation orders (administrative separation/retirement/Fleet Reserve/expiration of expiration of active obligated service) from deployed fleet units (Type 2), overseas commands (Type 4/6), or designated places of confinement as determined by Navy Personnel Command (NAVPERSCOM), Corrections and Programs Office (PERS-00D).  Deviations require a written waiver, via Immediate Superior-in-Command, from NAVPERSCOM (PERS-00D).  TPUs do not function as a holding facility for personnel assigned to local shore commands or non-deployed fleet units.  

Mission

TPU is responsible for the efficient and expeditious processing of all transient personnel assigned and the operation of the disciplinary barracks.

TPU administrative offices are where teams of a Personnel Support Detachment and TPU staff work together to process Navy Personnel who are on their way to their next command or waiting to be discharged to the civilian community.

Our customers are Sailors traveling to a deployed or underway command, personnel being separated from a deployed or overseas command who have orders, and personnel transitioning between two commands.
