Dear Sir or Madam:
This letter serves as the Government's certificate of
Insurance. Commander, Navy Installations Command,
Millington Detachment, is responsible for Navy-wide
administration and management of Morale, Welfare and
Recreation (MWR) activities.
Navy MWR activities on board, or otherwise serving
military commands at, Naval Air Station, Key West,
Florida, are components of the U.S. Department of Defense
that performs an essential government function, and, as
such, it enjoys the legal status of an instrumentality of
the United States. The U.S. Navy, as a government agency
and a Department of Defense component, pays claims that
are adjudicated to be meritorious by either appropriate
administrative personnel or by U.S. Court decisions under
the Federal Tort Claims Act. The government of the United
States is by law self-insured. Claims adjudicated against
the U. S. Government are paid under the General Judgment
Fund [See 10 USC ~1304 (a) (1988)].
Similarly, claims adjudicated against an MWR activity
(a nonappropriated fund instrumentality of the United
States) are also paid with government funds administered
through the self-insurance program maintained by CNI,
Millington Detachment. Coverage under MWR's Property and
Casualty Self-Insurance Program provides for a combined
single limit of $1,000,000.00 for injury, death or
property damage for such third party liability claims.
In both instances, the United States Government is
self-insured, and as a mater of federal law, shall not
assume legal responsibility for any non-federal entity or
person.
Should you have additional questions or should you
encounter further difficulties with this matter, please
~~~~~ct the MWR Legal Counsel, G~~ at (901) 874-,

Asst. Head, Community
Programs Service Office
