        (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 his naval record be corrected to reflect reenlistment and advancement under the provision of the Selective Training and Reenlistment (STAR) program. 
                                              
2.  The Board, consisting of , reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 18 March 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.  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 to reenlist under the STAR program in accordance with reference (b).  However, an administrative error on Petitioner’s reenlistment contract reflected an erroneous term of 4-years vice 5-years impeding his ability to be advanced upon successful completion of Enlisted Navy Recruiting Orientation course and earning Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC) 803R on 28 August 2020. 
 
RECOMMENDATION

Petitioner’s NAVPERS 1070/601, Immediate Reenlistment Contract dated 7 February 2020 is amended to reflect a “5-year” vice “4-year” term.   
 
Petitioner advanced to MMA2/E-5 effective 28 August 2020. 
                                                             
A copy of this Report of Proceedings will be filed in Petitioner’s naval record.
