        (2) 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 establish entitlement to reimbursement of personally procured move (PPM). 
 
2.  The Board, consisting of  reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 4 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, he exhausted all administrative remedies available under existing law and regulations within the Department of the Navy.  The Board made the following findings: 
 
     a.  On 23 June 2020, Petitioner completed weight tickets for his PPM. 
 
     b.  On 29 September 2020, Petitioner issued BUPERS Order:  2730 (Official Change Duty Orders).

     e.  On 17 March 2021, Petitioner issued notification of denied claim from the Household Goods -  Audit Team (HHG-AT). 
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 completed PPM prior to the issuance of Official Change Duty Orders, thereby impeding him from receiving reimbursement for the PPM in accordance with reference (b).  However, the Board felt the orders were not issued in a timely manner; therefore, under these circumstances, relief is warranted.
