Then, forward the one-record
packet to NAVRESPERSCEN, Code 401.
NAVRESPERSCEN will subsequently forward the
closed service record documents previously indicated
to CHNAVPERS (PERS 313C1) to update the
permanent record. The permanent personnel record
and health treatment record are eventually sent to the
National Personnel Records Center, St. Louis,
Missouri, for final disposition or archival records.
Interservice Transfers
For interservice transfers, you must use different
forwarding procedures, depending on the individual
circumstances of each case.
INTERSERVICE TRANSFER TO ANOTHER
BRANCH OF THE U.S. ARMED FORCES.— For
an officer who is discharged from the Regular Navy or
Naval Reserve for interservice transfer to another
branch of the U.S. Armed Forces, transfer the officer’s
records to CHNAVPERS (PERS 253C). Mark the
mailing envelope “INTERSERVICE TRANSFER - DO
NOT OPEN IN MAILROOM.” For additional
information on interservice transfers, refer to the
MILPERSMAN, Article 3830140.
TRANSFER TO ENLISTED STATUS.—
Occasionally, an officer will revert to enlisted status and
remain on active duty. In this case, move the applicable
documents such as security forms and page 2s to the
6-16
open enlisted service record. Retain the health
treatment record at the current duty station. Transfer
the closed officer record to NAVRESPERSCEN, Code
401.
Deceased Officers
For a deceased
record or health
officer, send the closed service
treatment record packet to
CHNAVPERS (PERS 663). Mark the mailing
envelope “DECEASED - DO NOT OPEN IN
MAILROOM.”
SUMMARY
This chapter has discussed the creation of officer
personnel records, verification of officer service
records, officer microfiche records, and field service
records and their contents. This chapter also discussed
the officer’s junkjacket, and the transfer and disposition
procedures for officer service records and health
treatment records. After studying this chapter, you
should have a very good idea of what an officer service
record is. You should also be able to identify the
different pages that are filed in the officer service record
and determine where they should be filed. If you are
tasked with handling officer service records, you must
remember that the information contained there is “for
your eyes only.” You cannot divulge any information
from an officer’s service record to any person, unless
that person is authorized to obtain such information for
the performance of his or her duties.
