 Welcome to All Hands Update. Here's what's happening around your Navy. Do you have what it takes to become an officer? The Navy Seaman to Admiral program is now accepting applications for 2016, and the NAV admin is out explaining the process you need to apply. Pay attention to application requirements for the program you select. Packages are often rejected for missing endorsements, non-qualifying SAT or ACT scores, and more. The deadline for this year's applications is July 1st. For more information on STAY 21 and its requirements, check out the STAY 21 website. The Kiersarge Amphibious Ready Group departed the 5th Fleet Area of Operations after successfully completing Theater Security Cooperation and Maritime Security Operations.
