Command and Milestone Application Instructions
Here’s the message from CAPT Allen, the MC Deputy Corps Chief:
The new Command and Milestone Instructions have been signed and are attached at the bottom of this post. The Corps Chief team posted them to the Executive Medicine Webpage.
You will see that there are now “FY25 Opportunities,” which has all the milestones and command opportunities we anticipate slating this year. Since the opportunities list has changed several times in the last month, we decided to avoid posting multiple PDFs when opportunities change. The list on the executive medicine page will be updated when new opportunities come up and will be available for all to view. To access the complete list of all command and milestone positions, click “FY25 Opportunities.”
LCDR Mollema received notification that there has been some issue with the website’s NAVMED 1410 and 1412 form links. I have not had those issues, nor has our SharePoint administrator, Mr. Corpuz. However, I attached them and sent them out with instructions. I will also point out that we have a note under the links that says, “The NAVMED forms are fillable and may need to be downloaded and completed in Adobe Acrobat.” Lastly, the “Submit Application” button/link where applicants have to upload their application has been tested and been deemed functional.
