Decoder for US Navy vs VCNO Standards of Conduct

This application is not officially endorsed or sponsored by the US Navy. This app is a quick reference guide to many US Navy personnel and other codes. Instead of spending the time to find the correct reference and look up the information, this app will allow one to quickly get to the answer. The main focus currently is on personnel related codes that will be found in manning documents such as RUADs and AMDs. Current items decoded: - Additional Qualification Designations - Enlisted Rating Codes - IMS Codes - MAS Codes - Officer Billet Codes - Officer Designators - Officer Paygrade Codes - Navy Reserve Activity Codes - NOBC Codes - RBSC Billet Codes - Reserve Program Codes - Reserve Unit Identification Codes - RFAS Codes - Subspecialty Codes - NECs See how you can support this open source project: https://github.com/ctd-mh3/NavyDecoder-OpenSource-iOS

The Vice Chief of Naval Operations (VCNO) Standards of Conduct (SOC) application is a mobile version of the annual standards of conduct guidance issued by the VCNO. While directed towards Flag Officers, it is an additional resource for "All Hands" to understand, implement, and maintain a comprehensive ethics program. This app update provides an electronic version of the 2024 VCNO SOC guidance with additional tools for Flag Aides and other direct support staff, direct links to hard-to-find references, and a break-down of common ethics issues by practice area. The app is also useful for Commanding Officers, Judge Advocates/General Counsel, Ethics Officials, and others. In addition to the point papers and references, the app offers interactive "Best Practice" forms, decision trees, and a "Command Coin Log" to track personal, Operations and Maintenance, Navy (OM&N), and Official Representation Fund (ORF) coin presentations. New to the 2024 update, there is now an interactive ORF calculator to assist Protocol Officers and other personnel with planning ORF events within the appropriate ratios. Additionally, the ORF calculator outputs can be exported to an excel document or imported into the best practice template to assist with routing the ORF request. The app includes references, useful links, and a "Favorites" section for bookmarking parts of the app you find most useful. The information in the app is not a substitute for legal advice and may not reflect the most current legal and/or policy guidance. Users are advised to consult their Ethics Officials regarding specific legal questions.
