      (2) Subject’s naval record 

1. 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 show he earned 2 satisfactory years 

2. The Board, consisting of reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on and, pursuant to its regulations, determined that the corrective action indicated below 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

 c. On Petitioner was commissioned as a in the U.S. Marine 
Corps. 

 d. On Petitioner entered active service, and was separated on 


Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record, and especially in light of the 
contents of reference (b), the Board finds the existence of an injustice warranting the following 
corrective action. Petitioner was erroneously assigned as his anniversary vice in the U.S. Marine Corps. The full-year period used for crediting of qualifying years for non-Regular retirement is based on anniversary years. The anniversary year is calculated from an anniversary date that is established on the day the Marine entered into active service, or active status in the Reserve Component. When Petitioner’s anniversary date was adjusted, it created 2 unsatisfactory years. 

RECOMMENDATION 

In view of the above, the Board directs the following corrective action. 

Petitioner completed all training and administrative requirements to include 50 points for the 
anniversary year ending Note: to accomplish this, points must be transferred from previous anniversary years, as necessary. 

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 reference (a), has been approved by the Board on 
behalf of the Secretary of the Navy.
