to modify an Enlistment/Reenlistment Document. 

2. The Board, consisting of               reviewed Petitioner's 
allegations oferror and injustice on 18 August 2017 and, pursuant to its regulations, determined 
that the corrective action indicated below should be taken on the available evidence ofrecord. 
Documentary material considered by the Board consisted ofthe enclosures, naval records, and 
applicable statutes, regulations and policies. 

3. The Board, having reviewed all the facts ofrecord pertaining to Petitioner's allegations of 
error and injustice, finds as follows: 

a. Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all administrative remedies available 
under existing law and regulations within the Department of the Navy. 

b. 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 ofall the evidence ofrecord, and especially in light ofthe 
contents of enclosure (2), the Board finds the existence of an injustice warranting the following 
corrective action. Petitioner was eligible for a zone "B" SRB for $12,000; however, due to 
administrative oversight Petitioner's term was not long enough in order to receive the full SRB 
amount, and Petitioner's reenlistment contract erroneously reflects $11,000 (a lower amount). 

RECOMMENDATION 

That Petitioner's naval record be corrected, where appropriate, to show that: 

The enlistment/reenlistment document (DD Form 4), executed on or about 24 August 2016 is 
modified to read ...this date for "5 years and 2 months" vice "4 years and 10 months", and ZONE 
B SRBP AMOUNT "$12,000" vice "$11,000". Note: all other remarks remain the same. 

This change will entitle the member to a zone "B" SRB for MOS 6156, which is capped at 
$12,000 for 48 months of additional obligated service. Remaining obligated service to 
28 September 2017 will be deducted from SRB computation. 

A copy ofthis Report ofProceedings will be filed in Petitioner's naval record. 

4. It is certified that quorum was present at the Board's review and deliberations, and that the 
foregoing is a true and complete record of the Board procedings in the above entitled matter. 

5. Pursuant to the delegation ofauthority set out Sect10n 6( e) of the revised Procedures of the 
Board for Correction ofNaval Records (32 Code ofFederal Regulations, Section 723.6(e)) and
