Each awardee is recognized for outstanding performance in their recruiting duties which directly contributes to the Navy’s fleet readiness and capability. An annual ROY awards ceremony typically takes place in January in Washington, D.C. This year’s ROY celebrations are tentatively scheduled for Jan. 26-31.
In addition to the ROY winners, Navy Recruiting District San Francisco was recognized with the Navy Recruiting Command Gold “R” award, which is similar to a Battle “E” award in the fleet. The Gold “R” recognizes the top Recruiting District across the Nation.
Approximately 5,000 Navy recruiters are on duty around the clock across the country to recruit the best and brightest America has to offer. Recruiters are tasked with ensuring the Navy active and reserve, officer and enlisted manning levels are met across the fleet. The Recruiting enterprise consists of a command headquarters located in Millington, Tenn., two Navy Recruiting Regions, East and West, and 26 Navy Recruiting Districts which serve hundreds of recruiting stations across the country.
The men and women who join today’s Navy, and the recruiters who help them get there, are a testament to the quality and commitment of today’s young Americans, serving their country with honor, courage and commitment. With 70 percent of the world covered by ocean, 80 percent of the world’s population living near coasts and 90 percent of the world’s commerce traveling by water, providing for the future of our fleet is truly vital to our nation’s defense.
