DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF NAVAL RECORDS 701 S. COURTHOUSE ROAD, SUITE 1001 ARLINGTON, VA 22204-2490 Docket No. 6690-20 Ref: Signature Date From: Chairman, Board for Correction of Naval Records To: Secretary of the Navy Subj: REVIEW OF NAVAL RECORD ICO USN, XXX-XX- Ref: (a) Title 10 U.S.C. § 1552 (b) NAVADMIN 048/11 Encl: (1) DD Form 149 w/attachments (2) BUPERS memo 1160 Ser B328/136 of 5 Oct 20 (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 Mr. , Mr. and Ms. , reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 27 May 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, she 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 11 December 2006. b. Petitioner earned Dental Laboratory Technician (Basic) Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC) code 8752. c. On 29 September 2011, Petitioner reenlisted for 3-years. d. 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. Petitioner met the eligibility criteria for a Zone “A” SRB in accordance with reference (b), but failed to reenlist within the same fiscal year of her expiration of active obligated service, thereby rendering her ineligible. Although the proper administrative procedures were not completed, the Board found that had Petitioner received appropriate counseling, she would have requested and reenlisted within the prescribed time outlined in reference (b). Therefore, the Board felt, under these circumstances, relief is warranted. RECOMMENDATION That Petitioner’s naval record be corrected, where appropriate, to show that: Petitioner’s NAVPERS 1070/601, Immediate Reenlistment Contract dated 29 September 2011 for a term of 3-years is amended to reflect reenlisting on “1 October 2011” vice “29 September 2011”. This change will entitle the Petitioner to a Tier Three, Zone “A” SRB with an award level of .5 ($45,000 award ceiling) for the Hospital Corpsman (HM) rating with NEC 8752. Remaining obligated service to 10 December 2011 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. 7/2/2021 Deputy Director
