SUBJ: CHANGE TO US NAVY EARLY RETIREMENT PROGRAM REF A: PERS MANUAL NAVADMIN M1000.6(SERIES)

1. AS A RESULT OF AN OBAMA ADMINISTRATION PROPOSED FORCE REDUCTIONS AND
BUDGET CUTS, THE NAVY HAS DEVELOPED A PROGRAM TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF
ACTIVE DUTY PERSONNEL. THIS PROGRAM WILL BE EFFECTIVE 1 OCTOBER 2009.
UNDER THIS PROGRAM, OLDER SAILORS WILL BE ASKED TO GO ON EARLY
RETIREMENT, THUS PERMITTING THE RETENTION OF THE YOUNGER SAILORS WHO
REPRESENT THE FUTURE. THEREFORE, THIS PROGRAM WILL PHASE OUT OLDER
SAILORS BY JUNE OF THE FOLLOWING FISCAL YEAR. THE INITIAL PHASE OF THE PROGRAM WILL BE KNOWN AS SLAP (SAILORS LATE-AGED
PROGRAM). SAILORS WHO ARE SLAPPED WILL BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK
FOR JOBS OUTSIDE THE NAVY. SLAPPED SAILORS CAN REQUEST A REVIEW OF THEIR
PERSONNEL RECORDS BEFORE ACTUAL RETIREMENT TAKES PLACE.

2. THIS PHASE OF THE PROGRAM IS CALLED SCREW (SURVEY OF CAPABILITIES OF
RETIRED EARLY WORKERS). ALL SAILORS WHO HAVE BEEN SLAPPED OR SCREWED MAY
FILE AN APPEAL WITH THEIR CHAIN OF COMMAND WITH FINAL AUTHORITY AT THE
LOCAL COMMAND LEVEL.

3. THIS PHASE IS CALLED SHAFT (STUDY BY HIGHER AUTHORITY FOLLOWING
TERMINATION). UNDER THE TERMS OF TWO OTHER NEW POLICIES, A SAILOR MAY BE
SLAPPED ONCE, SCREWED TWICE, BUT MAY BE SHAFTED AS MANY TIMES AS THE NAVY DEEMS APPROPRIATE. IF A SAILOR FOLLOWS THE ABOVE PROCEDURES, HE/SHE WILL BE ENTITLED TO HERPES (HALF EARNINGS FOR RETIRED PERSONNEL'S EARLY SEVERANCE) OR CLAP (COMBINED LUMP-SUM ASSISTANCE PAYMENT),,,

Figured I'd stop it there as, given it's naval orientation, I couldn't possibly post the rest with a clear conscience and without getting in too much trouble with those pesky mods...  :laugh:

Only funny because it's true. I would have stayed in last year if I had even heard a whisper of early retirement coming back. I'll still retire, it just takes a while longer in the reserves.
