Introduction -- Determining and Validating External Naval Officer Requirements -- Joint Duty Assignments -- Managing Naval Officers in Outside-Navy Billets -- The Navy's Ability to Satisfy Jdal Requirements -- Concluding Observations and Recommendations.
The military services must assign people to outside organizations, such as joint duty with unified CINCs. The authors examine how the Navy deals with such demands and offer a series of recommendations, such as standardizing and simplifying related processes, defining a perspective on such assignments and reconciling it with officer career paths, and determining which types of officers are best assigned to unrestricted billets.
