Dear ,  
 
This is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to Title 10, United States Code, Section 1552.  After careful and conscientious consideration of relevant portions of your naval record and your application, the Board for Correction of Naval Records (Board) found the evidence submitted was insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or injustice.  Consequently, your application has been denied.     
 
A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive session, considered your application on 14 April 2020.  The names and votes of the members of the panel will be furnished upon request.  Your allegations of error and injustice were reviewed in accordance with administrative regulations and procedures applicable to the proceedings of this Board.  Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of your application, together with all material submitted in support thereof, relevant portions of your naval record and applicable statutes, regulations and policies.  In addition, the Board considered the advisory opinion contained in Branch Head, Community Management Support Branch memorandum 1160 Ser B328/124 of 17 June 2019; a copy of which was previously provided to you for comment. 
 
On 13 February 2018, a SELRES conversion program (RC2AC) request was submitted, signed by you, and approved by cognazant authority on 24 February 2018.  On 11 April 2018, you reenlisted for 4 years in the U.S. Navy. 
 
You requested a Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB) for your Immediate Reenlistment Contract in accordance with NAVADMIN 032/18; the Board, in its review of your entire record and application, carefully weighed all potentially mitigating factors, to include your assertions.  However, the Board concluded that per OPNAVINST 1160.8A, in order to be eligible for a SRB, you must be on active duty except active duty for training. SRB is not payable for a reenlistment in a regular component following discharge from a reserve component during or at completion of active duty for training.  In this connection, the Board substantially concurred with the comments contained in the advisory opinion. 
  
It is regretted that the circumstances of your case are such that favorable action cannot be taken.  You are entitled to have the Board reconsider its decision upon submission of new matters, which will require you to complete and submit a new DD Form 149.  New matters are those not previously presented to or considered by the Board.  In this regard, it is important to keep in mind that a presumption of regularity attaches to all official records.  Consequently, when applying for a correction of an official naval record, the burden is on the applicant to demonstrate the existence of probable material error or injustice.   
 
      Sincerely, 
     7/6/2020
