| - The Naval Discharge Review Board (NDRB) is a board established by Congress the United States Department of the Navy before which members of the United States Navy and the United States Marine Corps can challenge the propriety of the terms of their discharge from the military. It is located at the Washington Navy Yard. 10 U.S.C. ยง 1553 required the Secretaries of all branches of the United States armed forces to "establish a board of review, consisting of five members, to review the discharge or dismissal (other than a discharge or dismissal by sentence of a general court-martial) of any former member of an armed force under the jurisdiction of his department upon its own motion or upon the request of the former member or, if he is dead, his surviving spouse, next of kin, or legal representative." As such, the NDRB was created by the United States Secretary of the Navy by SECNAVINST 5420.174D. The purpose of reviews conducted by the NDRB is to determine whether a discharge was granted in the proper manner, and to determine if a given discharge is fair / equitable in light of the regulations that were in effect at the time of the discharge. The NDRB does not have the authority to reinstate a member to service. The Review Board has broad powers to correct any impropriety or inequity even if it only has preponderance of such impropriety or inequity. The NDRB does not have the authority to review discharges that occurred more than 15 years in the past or that were the result of a sentence awarded by a General Court Martial. If more than 15 yrs from discharge applicants must apply to Board of Corrections Navy Records using Form DD-149. The Form DD-293, periodically the OMB approval expires on this form and months will pass before a new one is approved, it seems the NDRB still accepts these exspired applications. The NDRB is a member of the Secretary of the Navy Council of Review Boards and is overseen by the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Manpower and Reserve Affairs).
