36 Lessons Learned

37 Measures of Success Best and Fully Qualified Standard Record of sustained superior performance in Operational Environments War fighting ability and tactical excellence Potential to serve in positions of greater responsibility Department Head performance was the most critical determinant for selection, but overall strength of record played heavily due to the large number of #1 ranked Department Heads Other Considerations: Break out in first shore (production valued) and second sea tour, Major Staff, Masters, JPME, CDO/OOD, IA/GSA Diversity of assignment locations/scope/responsibility viewed as a positive The Best and Fully Qualified were Selected for Command

38 FITREP Guidelines Minimum ~6 month #1 DH ticket as OPSO/MO or both was a discriminator for selection; some communities valued a longer ticket Double-tap EP, especially from different reporting seniors sent strong and intentional message to the board Larger summary groups increase record strength Individual trait average matters, especially in high-water FITREPs Large deltas b/t summary group & reporting senior averages (RSCA) = good Resetting of reporting senior GPA, if required, should be clearly explained Soft and hard breakouts are essential for top ranking officers. Lack thereof sends a negative message to the board FITREP recommendations for future career milestones are important Consistent message/recs in a tour & over the officer s career matter Recommendations for something other than operational command sends a clear message to the board, especially on a detaching HW FITREP

39 FITREP Guidelines Documentation of community/peer awards, nominations, qualifications, education, and IA/GSA are essential & should be included in a FITREP More effective than a letter to the board Explain unusual circumstances in the FITREP Perceived decliner due to promotion (Super JO/Training O tour) Early roller for an Aide billet, hard fill job, etc. More effective than a letter to the board Block 41-use as much space as needed Efficiently/effectively communicate to the board Some white space OK, in fact desired Use intro/conclusion to communicate individual soft/hard breakouts, make recommendations for promotions & future career milestones (OP CMD, OP DH, MAJ CMD, CAG, CVN)

40 Letters to the Board Most effective Letters to Board (LTBs) explain a poorly written, incomplete, or future FITREP: Explain extraordinary situations Highlight undocumented achievements Early pull for a Flag Aide, hard fill, or transition Least effective letter: Great Officer Must Pick A well written FITREP will preclude the need for a LTB!! LTBs can draw undue attention to a weakness (e.g., Timing forced me to roll him two days before a COC ) LTBs: Submit if information not otherwise in record

41 Officer Records Officers must routinely review their records Community Detailer/Assistant Recorder reviews are a courtesy only ~ 1000 pieces of correspondence received for the FY19 ACSB Most common problems with records: Missing/gapped FITREPs Missing awards/citations, quals (CDO U/W, etc.), & advanced education An incomplete record can bring into question the officer s attention to detail Board correspondence does not update or fix permanent record It is your record. Keep it up to date!

42 Command Qualification CNO directed Comply with prerequisites for command per: OPNAVINST CNAP/CNAL/NAVAIR/CNAFRINST CNAP-CNAL Includes Oral Board Grandfathered Officer must have completed Aviation DH tour before 4 June 2013 Those that failed, declined, or did not complete oral board were disqualified from this board
