3. Policies Concerning Conduct Ashore During Leave or Liberty
a. Rules and regulations
(1) Cooperate with military police, security police, shore
patrol, and civilian authorities at all times.
(2) You are subject to orders from senior officers in all
branches of the U.S. Armed Services.
(3) Do not enter an establishment or areas declared “off
limits.”
(4) No person in the Navy, while on a Federal/National reserve,
ship, craft, aircraft, or vehicle, is allowed to possess a
dangerous weapon, instrument, or device. The only
exception is if it is necessary for the proper performance
of duties and authorized by proper authority.
b. Communication with others
(1) Be wary of anyone who seems interested in the activity.
What seems unimportant or boring to you, may mean a lot for
them.
(2) Do not discuss any topic that may be considered classified
or sensitive information, such as:
(a) Naval exercises or procedures.
(b) Material shortages.
(3) Anything said in E-mail or on the Internet can be obtained
by anyone who wants it bad enough.
c. Returning from leave or liberty
(1) Always allow plenty of time for return from leave or
liberty.
(2) Ensure you have return transportation. Save sufficient
money or obtain a round trip ticket.
(3) Keep yourself informed of transportation schedules and
weather conditions through your return route. Make
sufficient allowances for normal delays.
(4) If circumstances beyond your control cause a delay beyond
your normal leave/liberty hours, immediately notify your
command and make them aware of the situation; e.g.,
mechanical problems with the aircraft, canceled flight.
(a) Your command may require written verification from the
airline to avoid disciplinary action.
