Docket No: 5848-03
15 October 2003
Dear
This is in reference to your application for correction of your naval record pursuant to the
provisions of title 10 of the United States Code, section 1552.
A three-member panel of the Board for Correction of Naval Records, sitting in executive session,
considered your application on 15 October 2003. Your allegations of error and injustice were
reviewed in accordance with administrative regulations and procedures applicable to the
proceedings of this Board. Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of your
application, together with all material submitted in support thereof, your naval record and
applicable statutes, regulations and policies. In addition, the Board considered the advisory
opinion furnished by PERS memorandum 1 160 Ser 81 1 dated 15 September 2003, a copy of
which is attached.
After careful and conscientious consideration of the entire record, the Board found that the
evidence submitted was insufficient to establish the existence of probable material error or
injustice. You were not entitled to a zone "C" Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB) prior to
passing through the zone as you had not yet completed MA "A" school training. It is unfortunate
that your original school completion date was changed but a service member must be qualified in
the SRB rating on the date of reenlistment. In this connection, the Board did not concur with the
comments contained in paragraph 7 of the advisory opinion. Accordingly, your application has
been denied. The names and votes of the members of the panel will be furnished upon request.
It is regretted that the circumstances of your case are such that favorable action cannot be taken.
You are entitled to have the Board reconsider its decision upon submission of new and material
evidence or other matter not previously considered by the Board. In this regard, it is important
to keep in mind that a presumption of regularity attaches to all official records. Consequently,
when applying for a correction of an official naval record, the burden is on the applicant to
demonstrate the existence of probable material error or injustice.

the time the petitioner received BUPERS order 2402. Reference (c)

reenlistment. However, the petitioner was initially set to earn the
MA rate on 09 May 2003 in accordance with the original BUPERS order
2 4 0 2 .
7. In view of the above, recommend effect a reenlistment on 09 May
2003 for three to six years. This change will entitle the member to a
zone 'C" SRB with an award level of 0.5 for the MA rate. The
petitioner should receive the SRB without monetary loss of
entitlement.
