        (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, in effect, that the applicable naval record be corrected to modify an immediate reenlistment contract.

2. The Board, consisting of	, reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 28 June 2019 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 the 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 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 was eligible to a zone “A” Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB) per governing SRB policy (NAVADMIN 119/18).  Petitioner crossed into zone “B” on 27 November 2018 therefore, Petitioner was no longer entitled to a zone “A” SRB for reenlistment executed on 29 November 2018. Petitioner should have been advised to execute reenlistment no later than the last day eligible for zone “A” SRB [27 November 2018].

RECOMMENDATION

That Petitioner’s naval record be corrected, where appropriate, to show that:

Petitioner was discharged and reenlistment on 26/27 November 2018, vice 28/29 November 2019.  The term is 6 years.

Petitioner’s previous SRB zone “B” payment with an award level of 1.0 should be adjusted to reflect recent SRB zone “A” entitlement with an award level of 2.5.

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.
