1. THE NAVY-MARINE CORPS MARS HOMEPAGE (WWW.NAVYMARS.ORG) HAS A COPY
OF THE MEMBERSHIP DATABASE BEHIND A PASSWORD PROTECTED FIREWALL. I
HAVE LEARNED THAT TRAINING MEMBERS HAVE BEEN GIVE THE USERNAME AND
PASSWORD BEFORE BECOMING REGULAR MEMBERS. SINCE MANY OF OUR TRAINING
MEMBERS NEVER ACHIEVE REGULAR MEMBERSHIP (FOR MANY REASONS), IT IS
NOT APPROPRIATE, OR GOOD SECURITY PROCEDURE, TO GIVE TRAINING MEMBERS
THE USERNAME AND PASSWORD TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE DATABASE.
2. AS A MATTER OF POLICY, TRAINING MEMBERS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED ACCESS
TO THE FIREWALL PROTECTED MEMBERSHIP DATABASE UNTIL THEY ACHIEVE
REGULAR MEMBERSHIP STATUS.
3. IN ORDER TO INCREASE THE SECURITY OF OUR HF FREQUENCIES, ALL
AREAS, REGIONS AND STATES SHALL REFER TO FREQUENCIES, ON-THE-AIR AND
IN TRANSMITTED MESSAGES, BY THE THREE LETTER DESIGNATOR. THESE
DESIGNATORS MAY BE FOUND IN THE FREQUENCY MATRIX POSTED ON THE
NATIONAL HOME PAGE.
4. THE FOLLOWING EXCEPTIONS ARE AUTHORIZED:
  A. COMMON FREQUENCIES 4042.5 KHZ, 7382.5 KHZ AND 14385.0 KHZ
(ASSIGNED FREQUENCIES).
  B. AFLOAT AND OVERSEAS OPERATIONS NET FREQUENCIES (SINCE THE SHIPS
THEY SERVICE DO NOT HAVE A COPY OF THE MATRIX).
5. NAVMARCORMARS: TOGETHER WE CAN ACHIEVE ANYTHING.
