AL,

Please re-read the excerpt from CHNAVMARCORMARS BCST 03-09 below. The Navy 
has ASKED to be let out, it has NOT been decided yet.

You should probably listen to Navy-Marine Corps MARS nets for any relevent 
information on this issue, not the speculation that other MARS services are 
talking about on their nets.

QUOTE

2. ALL THREE MARS SERVICES HAVE OPERATED UNDER THE MANDATE OF REF A, WHICH 
IS STILL VALID. REF B IS A PROPOSED UPDATE TO REF A AND IS IN THE PROCESS OF 
BEING COORDINATED BETWEEN DOD AND THE THREE SERVICES. REF B INCREASES THE 
SERVICES REQUIREMENT TO SUPPORT THE MARS PROGRAMS WITHIN THEIR SERVICE. ARMY 
AND AIR FORCE HAVE AGREED TO THE CHANGES BUT NAVY (OPNAV) HAS ASKED TO BE 
LET OUT OF THIS REQUIREMENT. THIS NEGOTIATION IS STILL IN PROCESS AND WE DO 
NOT KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE RESOLVED.
