 Welcome to all hands update, here's what's happening around your Navy. Naval installations within the United States will conduct Exercise Solid Curtain Citadel Shield 2017, January 30th through February 10th. This annual exercise enhances the readiness of Navy's security forces and ensures seamless interoperability among the commands, other services, and agency partners. Exercise Solid Curtain Citadel Shield 2017 is not in response to any specific threat but is a regularly scheduled event. Good news Navy, W-2's have been released so it's time to file taxes. Keep in mind the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes, or PATH Act, requires the IRS to hold Earned Income Tax Credits and Additional Child Tax Credits until February 15th. Also, new identity theft and fraudulent refund safeguards by both the IRS and individual states may mean tax returns and refunds could face additional review. To find out more visit ah.mil.
