You had better get your stuff in order, Perform or get out! NAVADMIN 210/10

Annnndd… the Navy is trying to save money again..

I can’t say I don’t agree with this, I do.  If your a habitual under-performer, can’t carry a weapon, can’t get re-classified etc.. you should get out.  There are to many people trying to get in the Navy who have a better attitude or can do the job that needs to be done..

That being said, you should educate yourself on this change.
