corrective action: Petitioner was eligible for a zone “C” SRB for a 5-year reenlistment executed 
on however, an administrative error occurred due to lack of reenlistment request and SRB submission to . Petitioner’s command generated a 13-month extension in order to meet obligated service requirements for BUPERS orders, vice executing Petitioner’s requested 5-year reenlistment. Hence, Petitioner failed to receive entitlement to a zone “C” SRB.
