The Navy is aligning limited duty officers (LDO) who support the nuclear enterprise under the 640X designator into the 62XX nuclear power series, according to NAVADMIN 006/16 released Jan. 6.

This change aligns all submarine and nuclear enterprise LDOs' job functions, increases efficiencies in accessions, career management and the distribution of LDOs within the nuclear enterprise.

These LDOs support the nuclear power enterprise, serving aboard aircraft carriers, submarines, submarine tenders and in various nuclear maintenance positions.

No action is required by individual officers as the administrative change will be automatic.
