enclosure (1) with this Board requesting, in effect, that the applicable naval record be corrected 
to add awards points on the profile sheet for the August 2016 Navy Wide Advancement 
Examination (NWAE) Cycle 099 and advancement to E-6.

Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of the enclosures, relevant portions of 
your 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, finds as follows: Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all 
administrative remedies available under existing law and regulations within the Department of 
the Navy. 
CONCLUSION 
Upon review and consideration ofall the evidence of record, the Board agreed the Petitioner 
should have rated awards points on his Cycle 099 NWAE profile sheet for one Navy and Marine 
Corps Achievement Medal dated 26 August 2012 worth 2 awards points and for one award 
NAYADMIN 280/06 or 141/07 dated 6 October 2012 worth 2 awards points; for a total of 4 
awards points. The Board does not agree with the Petitioner that his profile sheet should have 
also included one Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal worth two points dated 30 
August 2016. The Board agrees that reference (b) states awards points can only be entered for 
awards approved or earned prior to the day of the regularly scheduled examination. The 
Petitioner took the NWAE on 1 September 2016 which is not the regularly scheduled 
examination date. In addition, the Board agrees the award issuance date of 30 August 2016 
cannot be before the period end date of October 2016. In addition, The Board finds the existence 
of an injustice warranting the following partial corrective action.
