Physical Evaluation Board (PEB)

The PEB request will be returned to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) with the information as outlined in the PRC letter.
NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) will then forward the request to the PEB for further disposition.
If the PEB determines the member is fit for retention, NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) may assign another appropriate PRC.
NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) will notify the member via the NRA of that action.

Key Point
