CMS/ID APPLICATION PHASE UPDATE
The June CMS/ID window has closed and the detailers are making their selections. The results from June
CMS/ID will be available Friday, 5 July 2013, at 1630 CST. July CMS/ID application phase will open on
Thursday, 11 July 2013, at 1800 CST. After the application window closes, Commands have through Friday,
26 July, to enter comments on CMS/ID. I strongly encourage your Commands to take advantage of this tool.
Entering comments provides information detailers can use to select the best sailor for your billet. Comments
can be entered as soon as the Application Phase begins, and entering comments early can give potential
applicants a better idea of available billets.
