     e.  On 1 February 2016, Petitioner signed an agreement to extend enlistment for 17 months with an SEAOS of 17 February 2022 in order to incur sufficient obligated service to execute BUPERS Order: 3585.

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.  The Board concluded that NSIPS reflects the 17 month and 7 month extensions were both made operative on 18 September 2020 resulting in Petitioner’s EAOS of 17 September 2022 vice 17 February 2022.  Only the 17-month extension should have been operative.  This action should allow Petitioner to reenlist for an SRB.
