r-' FROM THE REENLISTMENT .DESK
The reenlistment ratio on the‘Naval
Station Adak is very high in the career
personnel group, but is low in the area
of first reenlistments. It is understand
able that a man oh his first tour of duty
is a little discouraged being stationed
' o:i' Adak when he would rather be aboard
r ship.
A tour of duty on Adak is but a small
part of an enlistment.
Personnel nearing the end of their
enlistment should consider the many
benefits of a Naval Career, The benefits
are many and now there are a number of
programs connected with reenlisting that
assist in faster promotions through
guarantee! schooling. Change of rate to
a rating that is open ferpromotion is an
other incentive,
. Information on all of the programs
and reenlistment benefits is available
'•at the I.& E or Military Personnel
