NOSC San Diego OSU

ALCON,

We are not affected by the government shutdown. Drill will proceed as scheduled.

If you are not receiving my emails from the OSU mailing list, you are missing out on a lot of good information. Make sure to sign up on the list next drill weekend, as not everyone uses FB.

If you have any questions, contact the SEL.

ALCON, I just sent the first email using the OSU distro. If you do not receive an email from me, please reach out with your personal address so I can add you. This will help pass on information between drill weekends that may not be able to shared on FB. If you have any questions, contact the SEL.

Reminder for tomorrow: Muster is at 0700, PFA Weigh In starts at 0730

The PFA cycle begins next DWE. To participate in the PFA:
1.) PHA must be up to date and current through the PFA.
2.) Complete the PARFQ on PRIMS in BOL before completing the weigh in;
3.) Conduct Weigh-in on Saturday at NOSC Gym;
4.) Conduct PRT on Sunday at Miramar Track.

For those asking about alternate cardio, the NOSC CFL staff are not offering alternate cardio unless you have a medical waiver. You may conduct the alternate cardio if you arrange to complete the PFA with a CFL from another unit who is willing to conduct it for you.

You may weigh in wearing your NWU/ NSU or the PTU; however, you must be in the proper PTU to conduct the PRT. This is either the complete track suit (jacket and pants) or the t-shirt and shorts. If you are not wearing the PTU correctly, you will be directed to complete it on another weekend.

If you have any questions, contact the SEL.

All members are required to review/ update and validate their Navy Family Accountability and Assessment System (NFAAS) personal and emergency contact information. This is required to be completed by 30SEP2018. Click on the NFAAS link in My Navy Portal, log in with your CAC, and verify the information is accurate. Whether or not you make changes, ensure you click the UPDATE button on each page you view. The date you complete this should reflect on the side of the page.

This is significantly important for SELRES members as it enables the NOSC to locate your contact information if you are tagged for MOB. It also enables the NOSC to see who (you or your family) may be affected by natural disasters so we can reach out and confirm your family is safe.

If you have not updated your NFAAS since April 01, go in and do so before 30 September.

If you have any questions, contact the SEL.

All advancement exam participants: doors will open tomorrow at 0600 and will close at 0700. The exam will only be administered in the morning for all eligible members. Due to parking limitations, plan to arrive early. You must be in the Uniform of the Day, and are not authorized to bring anything other than your ID Card and an approved calculator (if authorized). Do not bring backpacks, food, water bottles, etc.

If you do not have your ID card or you are not in the uniform of the day, you will be turned away and directed to return on Bravo weekend.

If you have any questions or concerns, contact the SEL.

I'm looking for 5 Sailors to assist with CMC DeLage's retirement ceremony this Saturday. Set up begins at 0730 on North Island. Uniform can be NWU. Contact me for more information.

Happy Friday, All! Next week is 4th of July holiday, so the NOSC will be closed Tuesday-Thursday. If you have any business to conduct there, please go in on Monday or Friday.

Also, please be safe during the holiday! If you choose to drink, DO NOT DRIVE. It's not worth it. I am not leaving the area, so if you need anything, contact me.

Have a wonderful 4th! See you all July 14/15!

Physical Readiness Program Change: effective immediately, Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) failures no longer automatically preclude mobilizations. Service members with PFA failures are now eligible for both voluntary and involuntary mobilizations.

Sailors who fail the PFA prior to mobilization should expect to participate in teh Fitness Enhancement Program (FEP), or equivalent fitness program, at their ultimate duty station.

If you have questions, contact me.

I need everyone to verify you have a valid, working email on file in NSIPS, as well as a working phone number. Make sure your email is one you check frequently, and your phone number is one that has a working voicemail. I have been trying to reach a Sailor regarding an important resked for RC2AC, and there has been no response back to email and the voicemail box is not set up.

Make sure I am able to reach you between drill weekends. If you requested my assistance with something, make sure you follow up with me until it is complete.

NROWS: If you submit orders into NROWS that will need approval, contact me via phone or email so I know your orders are waiting. As soon as you submit, contact me.

UPDATE: My phone is back online, you can contact me on my personal or work number or via email as needed.

All, my phone stopped working this morning. For all correspondence, please use email or contact my work phone number ending in 8459 until further notice. Thank you!
