NEC Information

 
BUPERS-328 (Community Management Support Branch) is the Navy's sole Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC) award authority outside of the Corporate enterprise Training Activity Resource System (CeTARS).  We also process removals, archival and waiver requests using a NAVPERS-1221/6 form (see below for a download link).  

Download NAVPERS 1221/6 (PDF Format)

The form is PDF and requires use of Adobe Reader to open.  Send completed forms via encrypted email to mill_nec_request@navy.mil or snail mail to:

Bureau of Naval Personnel
BUPERS-328 NEC MGMT
5720 Integrity Drive
Millington, TN 38055

Emails must be encrypted for PII protection.  We have 'look-up' capabilities for USN/TAR and SSN data is not needed if we have a full name, rate and attached UIC on the form.  SELRES pose a different problem and if the member is not in FLTMPS, then full SSN is required.  Any questions or issues, please contact us at mill_nec_request@navy.mil
