Navy·Consolidated / merged·In Memoriam
Personnelman
PN
Served: 1948–2005
The sailor who owned your service record, your orders, your enlistment extension paperwork, and your transfer.
The Story
For 57 years, PN and DK ran parallel empires that the merger memo described as having "nearly identical customer bases." The Navy figured out in 2005 what every sailor knew already: pay and personnel are the same line.
Epitaph
“Knew where you were going. Knew when. Got merged on the same orders.”
