changes occur, you
should
modify it. Also, for example, when you determine
that
something is important
and should be added, add it to
the sheet and inform
others in your office about the
change
or changes you made. Make
sure that
you
reproduce the new copies and destroy the old ones.
Upon receipt of PCS orders on an assigned member,
make maximum
effort to make sure the member or
members receive sponsor notification
and are provided

by the most
expeditious
manner
possible of their
sponsors name,
mailing
address, and both commercial

When all routine
check-in
procedures
have been
completed, the enlisted member is assigned to a division
on board ship or at the shore station to which attached.
If the member is in one of the first three paygrades and
not
designated,
it may be one of your
duties
to
recommend
a suitable
assignment.
This is one of the
occasions when you will have an opportunity
to apply
what you know about classification.

In most cases the command to which a member is
reporting
has already
predetermined
the division
to
which the member will be assigned. All you have to do
is make a telephone call to determine
the division.
In
some cases, the member
may report
to your
office
already
accompanied by the sponsor, and the sponsor
will
already
know the division
to which
the newly
reporting
member will be assigned.

(I

all
newly
reporting
personnel.
The I division
is tailored
by the
individual
command
to
achieve
the
necessary
indoctrination
objectives in the shortest time possible,
normally
1 to 2 weeks, so the member or members may
move into the permanent
division
as soon as possible.

actions,
such
as
communication
with
the member
to explain

and initiative
of each sponsor

and the Navy S@onsor Program, OPNAVINST
1740.3.
All commanding
officers are required
to maintain
an effective
sponsor
program
designed
to ease
relocation
and
reception
of members
and
their
dependents
when transferred
on PCS orders. As you
know,
the commanding
officer
cannot
possibly
do
everything
himself
or herself therefore,
you, the PN,
will be responsible
for making
sure that the sponsor
program works well in your command.
A sponsor
must be assigned
by the receiving
activity
for all PCS transfers.
After you find out the
sponsors name, write in on the copy of the orders that
you have received.
By doing this, you will be able to
answer questions about whether
or not a sponsor has
actually been assigned.
