        (3) Subject’s naval record 
 
1.  Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a), Subject, hereinafter referred to as Petitioner, filed enclosure (1) with the Board for Correction of Naval Records (Board), requesting that her naval record be corrected to establish entitlement to Zone “A” Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB). 
                                              
2.  The Board, consisting of  reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 22 April 2021 and, pursuant to its regulations, determined that the corrective action indicated below should be taken on the available evidence of record.  Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of the enclosures, relevant portions of Petitioner’s naval record, and applicable statutes, regulations and policies. 
 
3.  The Board, having reviewed all the facts of record pertaining to Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice, found that, before applying to this Board, he exhausted all administrative remedies available under existing law and regulations within the Department of the Navy.  The Board made the following findings: 
 
     a.  Petitioner’s Active Duty Service Date is 3 January 2017; end of active obligated service 2 January 2021. 
    
    b.  Petitioner reenlisted on 30 April 2020 for a term of 3-years.   
 
    c.  In correspondence attached as enclosure (2), the office having cognizance over the 
subject matter addressed in Petitioner’s application has commented to the effect that the request has merit and warrants favorable action. 
 
CONCLUSION 
 
Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record, and especially in light of the contents of enclosure (2), the Board finds the existence of an injustice warranting the following corrective action.  Reference (b) authorized Master-at-Arms in Zone “A” an SRB.  However, because Petitioner reenlisted on the same day reference (b) promulgated, Command coordination with BUPERS-328 was required for Petitioner to garner SRB approval.  Although the proper administrative requirements were not completed, the Board felt that under these circumstances, relief is warranted. 
 
RECOMMENDATION 
 
That Petitioner’s naval record be corrected, where appropriate, to show that: 
 
Petitioner’s Command submitted a SRB submission waiver request and cognizant authority received it; SRB was approved.  Note: Petitioner reenlisted on 30 April 2020 for a term of -years. 
 
This change will entitle the Petitioner to a Zone “A” SRB with an award level of 0.5 ($30,000 award ceiling) for the Master-at-Arms (MA) rating.  Remaining obligated service to  
2 January 2021 will be deducted from SRB computation.    
 
A copy of this Report of Proceedings will be filed in Petitioner’s naval record. 
 
4.  It is certified that a quorum was present at the Board’s review and deliberations, and that the foregoing is a true and complete record of the Board’s proceedings in the above-entitled matter. 
 
5.  Pursuant to the delegation of authority set out in Section 6(e) of the revised Procedures of the Board for Correction of Naval Records (32 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 723.6(e)), and having assured compliance with its provisions, it is hereby announced that the foregoing corrective action, taken under the authority of the reference, has been approved by the Board on behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
