Navy says it will no longer release sailors' service history, another restriction on press access
The U.S. Navy will no longer release sailors' service history, citing security threats and harassment concerns. The policy change, part of broader press access restrictions under Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, removes publicly available information about sailors' assignments, awards, and ranks, complicating media reporting on service members involved in news events.
