Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a) Subject, hereinafter referred to as Petitioner, filed enclosure (1) with this Board requesting, in effect, that the applicable naval record be corrected to establish 63-months of Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB) entitlement. 2. The Board, consisting of , reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 11 March 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 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, found that, before applying to this Board, he exhausted all administrative remedies available under existing law and regulations within the Department of the Navy. The Board made the following findings: a. 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. Petitioner executed a 6-year reenlistment on 15 March 2019 with the intentions of receiving a Tier Three, Zone “A” SRB for 63-months. However, because of administrative error, Petitioner’s two 12-month extensions were combined causing the second 12-month extension period not to be cancelled upon reenlisting. The Board found that had the extensions remained separate the second 12-month extension would not have become operative and Petitioner would have received 63-months of additional obligated service for SRB entitlement vice 51-months. Although the proper administrative requirements were not completed, the Board felt that under these circumstances, full relief is warranted. RECOMMENDATION That Petitioner’s naval record be corrected, where appropriate, to show that: Petitioner's NAVPERS 1070/621, Agreement to Extend Enlistment effective 7 December 2018 is amended to 12-months vice 24 months. Petitioner exectued NAVPERS 1070/601, Immediate Reenlistment on 15 March 2019 for a term of 6-years. Note: NAVPERS 1070/621, Agreement to Extend Enlistment effective 7 December 2019 for 12-months was cancelled. This change will entitle Petitioner to a Tier Three, Zone “A” SRB with an award level of 1.0 ($30,000 award ceiling) for the Damage Controlman (DC) rating. Remaining obligated service to 7 December 2019 vice 7 December 2020 will be deducted from SRB computation. Note: Defense Finance and Accounting Service will complete an audit of Petitioner’s pay records to determine the amount of Petitioner’s retroactive bonus entitlement. A copy of this Report of Proceedings will be filed in Petitioner’s naval record. 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.
