Your Official Military Personnel File (OMPF) is a record of documents on your accession, training, education, performance, discipline, decorations and awards, assignments, duties, casualty status and separation/retirement from the Navy.
You can download and print service record documents at https://www.bol.navy.mil > Official Military Personnel File (OMPF)
OMPF SUBMISSIONS AND CORRECTIONS
Your servicing personnel office or Transaction Support Center (TSC) is the primary way to submit documents and changes to OMPF. However, you can submit corrections or missing documents as long as they meet the following requirements:
• If required, the document must be the original signed version
• The document must be actual size
• If the document is a copy, such as an award citation, ensure it is legible and printed in black and white
• Ensure the document does not contain Privacy Act information on another service member
• Do not duplicate information already in your OMPF record
• Your complete SSN should be recorded on the document. If not, handwrite your SSN in the upper left corner
• Faxed or emailed documents are not accepted
For missing EVAL and FITREP corrections contact PERS-32 at: uasknpc@navy.mil - (866) 827-5672 - (901) 874-4881/4882/3313

Your ESR is the official source documenting your pay and personnel information through the Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS). Ultimately, your record is your responsibility. Be sure to regularly look through your documentation in NSIPS and talk with your unit and NRC leadership to ensure your information is correct and up-to-date.
Your ESR is not the same as your OMPF. However, when you reenlist, the applicable documents in your ESR are closed out and submitted to your OMPF. This is important because selection board members only have access to your OMPF record when considering candidates for advancement or special programs. Keep this in mind if there are documents you want board members to consider — unless you recently reenlisted, documents missing from your OMPF will need to be submitted to the board manually.
A good practice is to review your ESR a couple of months prior to reenlisting to ensure the OMPF close out and submission process is delivering correct information. View your ESR data at https://nsipsprod-sdni.nmci.navy.mil.
The Navy Awards System is accessed via the BUPERS On-Line website. Your awards are normally recorded on the website without any required input from you, but you should check to see if your awards record is complete and accurate. Visit https://www.bol.navy.mil to view your awards. Talk with your NRC awards coordinator for any changes or submissions.
Reserve Sailors accrue leave while serving on active duty for a period of more than 29 days. At the end of the assignment, Sailors have the option to carry forward unused leave between non-consecutive periods of active duty. A page 13 request to carryover unused leave must be requested through your supported command’s Command Pay and Personnel Administrator (CPPA). If not requested, unused leave by default will be paid out, base pay without allowances minus taxes, to the member. Refer to NAVADMIN 163/12 - MILPERSMAN Article 1050-010 for more information.
Reserve Sailors are essentially managed by two chain of commands — administratively through a Navy Reserve Center (NRC) and operationally through a Reserve unit. This dual management is normally transparent to the member if their Reserve unit is run through their local NRC. When a Sailor is assigned to a unit outside of their local area, the unit and NRCs differing functions become more apparent.
A Non-Locally Assigned Sailor is any Sailor who is assigned a billet in a Reserve unit managed outside their local NRC. These Sailors have two separate chains of command:
ADMINISTRATIVE COMMAND
Referred to as the Training Unit Identification Code, or TRUIC, this is where a CA Sailor is Non-Locally-Assigned Out (CAO) from. For many Sailors this is the Readiness Support Unit (RSU) at the NRC.
OPERATIONAL COMMAND
Listed as the Unit Mobilization Unit Identification Code, or UMUIC, this is where the Sailor is Non-Locally-Assigned.
Non-Local-Assignments are established between similar units and/or within Reserve communities to the greatest extent possible (Naval construction forces, Maritime Expeditionary Security Squadrons, aviation squadrons, expeditionary medicine, etc.).
The TRUIC is responsible for the Sailor’s monthly drill periods and maintains administrative and mobilization readiness (PFA, medical/dental, and GMTs). These Sailors are assigned, as much as possible, to local units within the TRUIC that are the best fit for the Sailor’s rate or designator. For example, a Reserve nurse would be assigned to an operational health support unit that is part of the TRUIC.
Sailors may also be assigned to a TRUIC’s Operational Support Unit (OSU) — a general billet that is not assigned to an active-duty support role.
The UMUIC is designed to maintain a Sailor's warfighting readiness, which at its core is being fully trained in the mobilization unit assigned. UMUICs are assigned to an active Navy unit providing Reserve support for readiness and strategic depth.
The Sailor performs active duty training orders through their UMUIC. UMUICs are where Annual Training (AT), Active Duty for Training (ADT), Inactive Duty Training Travel (IDTT) as well as quarterly annual Individual Training Plans (ITP) are executed. The UMUIC benefits from CA Sailors by being able to fill open billets when there are no local Sailors available for assignment. FitReps and Evals for these Sailors are normally owned by the UMUIC of the member.
All these Sailors are expected to perform their AT with the UMUIC. It is also likely that a Sailor will be expected to drill at least quarterly with the UMUIC utilizing IDTT, as funding is available. It is important when applying for cross-assignment billets to review the drill requirements under “job description” in MyNavy Assignment. This is where commands are encouraged to clearly state their expectations for Sailors who are assigned to the unit.
The graphic below provides a quick visual explanation of cross assignments. Understanding the process may expand your knowledge of available career avenues and fulfilling training opportunities that you may not have known were available. For more information, contact your local training department and refer to BUPERS instruction 1610.10F and RESPERMAN Article 1300-060.
