Salt Lake City, Utah—Remember My Service™ (RMS), the premiere provider of Unit-specific interactive and print historical records in the Military, is pleased to announce its successful introduction to the Navy as both the USS Cleveland and the USS Howard have turned to RMS to provide them with the Navy’s first all-encompassing interactive service record on DVD-ROM paired with the traditional cruise book.

 

RMS began with the Army Reserve and National Guard, and is currently working with 25 National Guards throughout the country, including Florida, New York, California, Puerto Rico, Ohio and Illinois. “We are thrilled to have grown to the point where we could finally reach out to the Navy and show them not only the premiere cruise book service we offer with our interactive complement,” explains Sharlene Hawkes, President of RMS,  “but we have found that they are especially pleased to know that we do all the work for them.”

 

Typically, a Sailor is assigned the task of managing and creating the cruise book as a collateral duty aboard ship. With RMS as a full partner, this individual can offload all the photos, videos, documents, bios, newsletters, and more for  complete management of the layout, production, editing and on-time delivery.
