Navy Halts Up or Out Rules in Bid to Keep Ranks Filled

The Navy is halting separations of sailors over "high-year tenure" -- a program that dictates sailors can only serve so long at a certain rank before being involuntarily discharged from the service.

The move, announced in a message and press release Thursday, is aimed at improving "Navy retention efforts and Fleet readiness."

"By removing this barrier to retaining career-minded Sailors, the Navy is broadening career progression opportunities for Sailors and allowing them the opportunity to advance to the next higher paygrade," Rear Adm. James Waters, the Navy's director of plans and policy concerning its sailors, said in the release.

That seems to be the same reasoning as not removing a cancerous lung because it will make too big a hole in the chest. :shrug:
