Subj: REVIEW OF NAVAL RECORD
Ref: (a) Title 10 U.S.C. 1e52
Encl: (1) DD Form 149 w/attachments

(3) Subject’s naval record

1. Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a) Petitioner, filed
enclosure (1) with this Board requesting, in effect, that the
applicable naval record be corrected to show that he was entitled to
separation pay at the time of separation from active duty service.

2. The Board, consisting of Messrs. Pfeiffer, Zsalman, and George
reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 18 April
2011 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, 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, finds as follows:

hs Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all
administrative remedies available under existing law and regulations
within the Department of the Navy.

Ds Petitioner was released from active duty on 1 July 2010,
after serving 9 years, 6 months and 2 days of active duty service due
to reaching his Enlisted Career Force Controls.

c. Petitioner received a general discharge and was assigned a
reenlistment code of RE-1A. Under Marine Corps Order (MCO) 1040.31 he
was eligible for half separation pay prior to his discharge from
active duty service. However, a request for separation pay
determination was never submitted to Headquarters Marine Corps.
Docket: 13298-10

d. In December 2010, Petitioner submitted an application with
this Board seeking separation pay.

e. In correspondence attached as enclosure (2), the office having
cognizance over USMC separation pay has commented to the effect that
the request for separation pay 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.

RECOMMENDATION :

show that:

a. Petitioner is entitled to half separation pay for his release
from active duty on 1 July 2010, based on the years of active service
actually completed.

“JGH3"” vice “KBK1 and change block 28 to read “INVOL DIS - HIGH YEAR
TENURE NON RETENTION ON ACTIVE DUTY” vice “COMPLETION OF REQUIRED
ACTIVE SERVICE".

c. That a copy of this Report of Proceedings be filed in
Petitioner’s naval record.

4, Pursuant to Section 6(c) of the revised Procedures of the Board
for Correction of Naval Records (32 Code of Federal Regulations,
Section 723.6 (c) it is certified that quorum was present at the
Board's review and deliberations, and that the
