The Division Officer's Guide, Twelfth Edition, is a handbook for
Junior Officers and Petty Officers of the U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast
Guard afloat, in the air, under the sea and ashore. Originally
written in 1952 by CAPT John V. Noel Jr., and last revised in 2004,
the book provides division officers with basic lessons of
leadership, organization, administration, training, and discipline
- essential elements for success in their key positions. It offers
much useful information on individual readiness, the conduct of
assessments and inspections, maintenance processes and
responsibilities, and the preparation and methods of correspondence
and officer and enlisted career planning. The lessons and themes
are not limited to use in the sea services; they provide a
foundation for success in both military and personal life. Learning
and practicing division officer skills lays a foundation for future
success, no matter the environment or occupation, including the
highest levels of the military, government, and citizenship. This
twelfth edition continues to evolve with our rapidly changing
world. Terrorism has become an international security issue, men
and women now serve alongside superbly in all of our ships at sea,
and technology continues to change virtually every aspect of naval
operations. Cyber tools such as web-based information, use of
computer networks aboard ships, and the ability to post and share
information on websites in both unclassified and secure
environments continue to expand the reach of sea services but
similarly provide vulnerability vectors that may be exploited if
not protected. Over the next ten years, a division officer can
expect to see the expanding importance of cyber tools, increased
need for cooperation among nations operating in shared maritime
areas, and more autonomous operations where commander's intent must
be fully understood and executed should networked operations be
unavailable. Combined Navy and Coast Guard assets such as the
Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) and Fast Frigate (FF), the National
Security Cutter, the Zumwalt-class guided missile destroyer (DDG),
and the Joint Strike Fighter (F-35) will enable highly networked
operations, placing even greater emphasis on the importance of
skilled and capable officers leading divisions at sea. Despite the
technological advances in the tools available to leaders, a great
constant remains-the direct personal impact that the division
officer has on sailors each day. A division officer's fundamental
task is to build the core elements of a winning team. Division
Officer's Guide Twelfth Edition is written to reinforce the skills
and competencies at the heart of this charge.
