3. Record Flags
References:
 MILPERSMAN Article 1306-124
Personnel submitting a NAVPERS 1306/7 request to adjust PRD to
expiration of active obligated service (EAOS) with the intent to
separate will have their enlisted master file record flagged.
(1) Depending on active duty time remaining, the request may be
disapproved and needs of the Navy orders issued.
(2) If a request to match PRD to EAOS is received with no stated
reason, it will be considered as intent to separate.

4. What Prompts a Record Flag
 1306 request to adjust PRD to match EAOS stating
intent to separate. Will also flag if request is to match
PRD to EAOS with no stated reason in the 1306.
 1306 request for early separation.
 1306 or message indicating Sailor will separate at
EAOS.
 Message stating Sailor refuses to OBLISERV for
orders.
 Listed on Command PERSMAR message as intent to
separate.

5. What happens next
 PERS-40BB flag will be placed on record which
prompts the system that Sailor is not eligible for
orders issuance.
 Information is forwarded to BUPERS-32 ECM to
remove PTS quota and/or mark Sailor as “SP” (Told
to Separate) in Fleet RIDE-PTS .
5

6. Consequences of Record Flag
 Sailor has no negotiating power.
 Issued Needs of the Navy Orders if Sailor has 12
months or more time remaining between PRD and
EAOS. (In certain cases, orders may be issued to an
immediate deployer with less than 12 months until
EAOS.)

7. Requirements for Flag Removal
 Sailor submits a 1306 requesting to remove record
flag.
 Detailer will staff to PERS-40BB for review.
 PERS-40BB will staff to BUPERS-32 for concurrence.
 PERS-40BB will make final decision and inform rating
detailer of approval/disapproval.
7

8. Summary
 Requests for flag removal will not normally be
approved unless the Sailor has a critical NEC or is an
undermanned rating as determined by BUPERS-32.
 Counsel your Sailors regarding their decision to
separate.
 If the Sailor is unsure, it’s best to list Sailor’s career
intentions on PERSMARs as “Unknown” vice “Intent
to Separate”.
Thanks for taking care of your Sailors!
