Encl: (1) DD Form 149 w/enclosures 
      (2) Evaluation report and counseling record for the reporting period 29 Jul 18 to 31 Aug 18

1.  Pursuant to reference (a), Petitioner, an enlisted member of the Navy, filed enclosure (1) with the Board for Correction of Naval Records (Board), requesting that her record be corrected by removing her evaluation report and counseling record (Eval) for the reporting period 29 July 2018 to 31 August 2018. 
 
2.  The Board, consisting of  reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 7 July 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 records, 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 as follows: 
 
      a.  Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all administrative remedies available under existing law and regulation within the Department of the Navy. 
 
      b.  Petitioner was issued enclosure (2), an Eval for the reporting period 29 July 2018 to  31 August 2018.  Petitioner contends that Eval was submitted in error, and that it contains multiple errors.  Specifically, the Eval was submitted to establish her Performance Mark Average (PMA), but she was a fleet returnee who already had an established PMA from her dethatching command within the time period cycle. 
 
 c.  In an advisory opinion (AO), enclosure (3), PERS-32 determined that the contested Eval contains errors and that it was unnecessary to establish Petitioner’s PMA.  PERS-32 thus recommended that the Eval be removed from Petitioner’s official military personnel file (OMPF).    
 
CONCLUSION 
 
Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record, and especially in light of the AO, the Board determined that Petitioner’s request warrants relief.  The Board concurred with the AO that Petitioner’s contested Eval does contain errors and that it was unnecessary to establish her PMA.  The Board thus concluded that Petitioner’s Eval for the reporting period 29 July 2018 to 31 August 2018 shall be removed from her OMPF.
