Sailor 2025, a living and breathing set of approximately 45 initiatives, demonstrates the commitment of the Navy to recruiting and retaining the force of tomorrow. Despite our goal to retain and reward the Navy's best and brightest, some high performing Sailors choose to depart the Navy. To address this concern, the Navy announced the new Targeted Reentry Program (TRP) and associated program guidelines in NAVADMIN 047/18. Traditionally, when Sailors depart Naval service without Reserve affiliation, their career decision is final. If the Sailors decide to re-apply for Naval service later, they must do so through a recruiter. TRP empowers Commanding Officers (COs) to identify and nominate their Sailors for an accelerated return to Active Duty. Through the nomination process, the Sailor will be considered for a "Golden Ticket" or "Silver Ticket." The program is designed to benefit both the Navy and the Sailor through continued service of sustained superior performers in critical designators and ratings who earned specific qualifications and possess valuable skill-sets needed in our Navy.
