RMKS/1.  THIS NAVADMIN MODIFIES THE FY-02 SRB PROCESS (REF A THROUGH
E APPLY) WITH EXCEPTIONS FOR THOSE PERSONNEL WHOSE SRB REQUESTS HAVE
PREVIOUSLY BEEN APPROVED BY PRECERT MESSAGE.  THE IMPROVING NAVY-WIDE
RETENTION AND HIGH SRB TAKE RATES MAKE IT NECESSARY TO PRIORITIZE
SRB REQUESTS TO ENSURE SITUATION-CRITICAL REQUESTS ARE APPROPRIATELY
ADDRESSED.

    A.  MEMBER WILL PASS THROUGH SRB ZONE OF ELIGIBILITY BEFORE END
OF FY-02.

SUPPORTED WITHIN THE LIMITS OF FUNDING AT THE TIME OF RECEIPT WILL
BE GIVEN AN EXTENSION AND A REENLISTMENT DATE IN THE FIRST 45 DAYS
OF FY-03.
 
4.  FOR THOSE PERSONNEL AFFECTED BY THIS ACTION, AND SUBJECT TO THE
CONDITIONS OF A CONTINUING RESOLUTION OR FY-03 APPROPRIATIONS ACT,
THE INTENT IS TO APPROVE ELIGIBLE SRB REQUESTS IN THE FIRST 45 DAYS
OF FY-03 AT NO LESSER AMOUNT THAN IF THE MEMBER HAD BEEN APPROVED TO
REENLIST AT EAOS IN FY-02.
 
5.  SHOULD REF A BE REVISED BY A NEW AWARD PLAN, THOSE PERSONNEL
WHOSE REENLISTMENT HAS BEEN DELAYED IAW PARA 3 ABOVE WILL BE
GUARANTEED THE HIGHER AWARD LEVEL IF THEY REENLIST PRIOR TO

7.  NEED YOUR HELP TO ENSURE WE MAKE THE MOST EFFICIENT USE OF OUR
FINITE SRB RESOURCES AS WE PRIORITIZE SRB PRECERTS FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THIS FY.  BOTTOM LINE, ALL ELIGIBLE PERSONNEL DESIRING
TO REENLIST IN FY-02 WILL BE REENLISTED NLT 15 NOV 02 AT EITHER THE
CURRENT SRB AWARD LEVEL OR THE AWARD LEVEL IN EFFECT AT THE TIME OF
REENLISTMENT, WHICHEVER IS HIGHER.  WE WILL CONTINUE TO ENSURE
"MUST REENLISTS" FOR FY-02 ARE APPROVED AND THAT SPECIAL
CIRCUMSTANCES ARE CONSIDERED WHERE APPROPRIATE.
