Navy Evals and Brag Sheets; An Idiot's Guide is a PDF.
The summary begins with ranking and praise.It should be a significant award and promotion recommendation.This is a sticker.
Next lines are leadership, who did you supervise, performance bullets, and so on.It's possible to make almost anything a leadership bullet.It's a good idea to ask yourself "who gives a shit?" and "so what?".For some ideas, see our Eval Bullets.
Another bumper sticker is close by.There is a recommendation for advancement and a career milestone.
Measure things that are measurable, such as 25% increase in quals, 100% qualified warfare, etc.There is a 40% increase in command effectiveness and a 25% increase of operational readiness.
Use name intro/conclusion but not in text if you want to save space.
It never fails.What I should have been doing came back to bite me when the Chief asked for my brag sheet.If I kept track of what I did, I would have recorded some noteworthy achievements.It would be easy to shine something like that.I have nothing.A blank templet, starting from scratch and scrambling to recall, fudge, and generate something that won't get kicked back!
We have heard it many times, but few of us pay attention.Your brag sheet needs to be updated regularly.One of the few that actually takes the time to keep notes on what they have done is the exception.Maybe you are forced to do this weekly, monthly, whatever, hated it now but grateful later.If you don't put it in your brag sheet, it will never happen.Your ranking order is slipping down because of good work and wasted effort.How many people have been trained?How many of this?How much of that?What you can produce here will affect your ranking.It's better to kick it into gear.You can save a draft of your brag sheet.You will be in a great mood, reflecting on the weeks progress, if you update it at regular intervals.Should the chain of command have a hard-earned award to write, you will have developed a great habit of having a brag sheet on hand at a moment's notice.A habit is worth starting.Start small and keep it simple.
