If you are unsure of your circumstance please contact Mr. Marshall. 8. Do not use request chits and do not forward applications through your commands administrative support personnel, including those of the command master chief (CMC), CO or those of your FORCM/FLTCM. This will compromise board membership and invalidate your application. Applications go directly to the CMC. Forms received from, or routed through individuals other than the applicant or the FORCM/FLTCM, except as specified in paragraph 7 above, will not be considered. 9. Board membership will be held in the strictest confidence. Once an application is submitted Commander, Navy Personnel Command (CNPC) has ordered a policy of non-disclosure. Do not discuss applications or selection, if chosen, to serve on a board with anyone other than the CO, reporting senior, CMC, chief of the boat, cognizant FORCM/FLTCM, or board support personnel at NPC. It is appropriate for a CMC to be told by a member in the command of that members board service. However, the CMC may not disclose their own service on a board to anyone other than the CO. Failure to adhere to this policy is a direct violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. It will result in removal from the board and possible administrative or disciplinary action by CNPC. 10. Careful consideration should be given to a nominees availability to serve as a selection board member. CO concurrence for the nominee to participate on a board is required. COs, CMCs, and the applicant should understand that once selected, the member is under official orders to the board and requests for removal from board duties will not be granted except in extreme cases as specified in reference (a). 11.
