The Navy met its goal three months ahead of schedule, recruiting 40,600 sailors, according to a post on X.
“This is a critical time in history, the world is more complex and more contested than it has been in decades and our ability to respond starts with our greatest asset, our people,” Phelan said in a video accompanying the post.
Phelan touted the milestone as emblematic of the service’s recruiting efforts.
“To achieve recent recruiting success, Navy Recruiting Command established a Recruiting Operations Center to monitor data in real time,” the Navy said in a release Wednesday. “The Navy also implemented the Future Sailor Preparatory Course to improve accession success, streamlined medical waiver reviews, and identified and removed barriers to recruiter productivity.”
