        (2) Commanding Officer, USS           (     ) ltr 6110 Ser CG 66/060 of 27 Jun 18
	(3) PRPO ltr 5420 OPNAV N170 of 11 Feb 19
 
1.  Pursuant to the reference, Petitioner, a commissioned officer of the Navy, filed enclosure (1) with this Board requesting that his cycle 2-2015 Physical Readiness Test (PRT) score be updated in his Physical Readiness Information Management System (PRIMS) record. 

2.  The Board, consisting of                                                         , reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 21 January 2020 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 records, 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.  Petitioner contends that he was on temporary assignment away from his ship, the USS           , during which, his cycle 2-2015 PRT results were not entered in his PRIMS record. 

       c.  The Commanding Officer, USS            submitted enclosure (2), to PRPO (N170B), requesting that Petitioner’s PRIMS record for cycle 2-2015 be updated.  Enclosure (2) includes justification for his request, in addition to Petitioner’s PRT and Body Composition Assessment (BCA) data. 

       d.  In enclosure (3), PRPO N170 advised that Petitioner must provide the official command scoresheet for cycle 2-2015 or a Letter of Correction citing “Program Mismanagement.” 

CONCLUSION: 

Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record, the Board finds the existence of an injustice warranting corrective action.  The Board noted the Commanding Officer’s (CO) request to correct Petitioner’s PRIMS record.  The Board determined that the CO’s request provided sufficient justification for the correction to Petitioner’s PRT and BCA PRIMS record.  The Board thus concluded that Petitioner’s PRIMS record shall be updated to reflect the cycle 2-2015 PRT and BCA data contained in enclosure (2).
 
RECOMMENDATION: 

Petitioner’s PRIMS record be corrected by updating his cycle 2-2015 Physical Readiness Assessment using the PRT and BCA data contained in enclosure (2). 

Any material or entries inconsistent with or relating to the Board’s recommendation be corrected, removed or completely expunged from Petitioner’s record, that no such entries or material be added to the record in the future.  This includes but is not limited to all information systems and data base entries which reference or discuss the material being expunged. 

4.  It is certified that a 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 Regulation, 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 the reference, has been approved by the Board on behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
