action.




Docket No. 10559-07

RECOMMENDATION:

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

a.       Prior to his 30 July 1976 transfer to the Fleet Reserve he enrolled in SBP for spouse coverage, at the full base amount, naming as the beneficiary. Any other election or declination executed by Subject is null and void as there is no evidence Petitioner was notified of her spouse’s decision to decline
SBP.

b.       SBP premiums which would have been deducted from Subject’s retired pay since his transfer to the Fleet Reserve will be deducted from Petitioner’s future benefits.

c.       Subject died on 26 June 2007.

d.       A copy of this Report of Proceedings will be filed in Subject’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.
