        (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 her naval record be corrected to show Petitioner was entitled to lump-sum leave payment of 18 days.   
 
2.  The Board,   consisting of, reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 5 January 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, 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 accordance with reference (b) [29 March 2013], when enlisted members on ACDU who signify their intention to enlist or reenlist in the Regular Navy or Navy Reserve on a date immediately following the date of discharge and remain on ACDU, and members who first extend an enlistment, and who are entitled to lump-sum leave payments for unused leave standing to their credit, then the members may elect to sell a portion of the accrued leave and carry forward the remainder to the new or extended enlistment.  
 
     c.  On 1 August 2019, Petitioner signed a Command Career Request (NPPSC 1160/1) requesting a 6 year reenlistment effective 21 August 2019 and selling back leave of 18 days.  Petitioner’s request was approved by cognizant authority on 19 August 2019. 
 
     d.  On 21 August 2019, Petitioner reenlisted for 6 years.  Furthermore, Petitioner’s leave balance was 75 days. 
 
     e.  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.  The Board concluded that prior to Petitioner reenlisting, she had requested to sell back leave of 18 days; however, due to an admin oversight Petitioner’s contract failed to list a LSL Sellback of 18 days.   
 
RECOMMENDATION 
 
That Petitioner’s naval record be corrected, where appropriate, to show that: 
 
The immediate reenlistment contract (NAVPERS 1070/601) executed on 21 August 2019 for a term of 6 years listed a LSL Sellback of “18.0” vice “00.0”. 
 
Note: This change will entitle the member to a Lump-Sum Payment for Accrued Leave of 18.0 days. 
 
A copy of this Report of Proceedings 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’s proceedings in the above entitled matter. 
 
5.   Pursuant to the delegation of authority set out in Section 6(e) of the revised Procedures of the Board for Correction of Naval Records (32 Code of Federal Regulations, Section 723.6(e)) and having assured compliance with its provisions, it is hereby announced that the foregoing corrective action, taken under the authority of reference (a), has been approved by the Board on behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
