Recall the types of information found on the Enlisted Qualification History (page 4). The enlisted service record is the official history of a person’s Navy career. The information contained in the service record starts when you apply for enlistment and is added to throughout your naval service. The record is the property of the Navy and must be safeguarded against loss and against access by unauthorized persons. Service record entries are made by those personnel who are given such authority by the commanding officer. The enlisted service record, NAVPERS 1070/600, is a flat folder containing various forms concerning your enlisted service. Your service record will contain only the forms that apply to you. The right-hand side has certain forms in a specific order. The order in which these forms are filed has led to their being referred to as pages. For example, your enlistment contract is the first, or bottommost, form. It is referred to as page 1. Some of the forms found in all service records will be discussed later. Other papers required for safekeeping or record purposes are filed on the left-hand side of the folder. A separator, entitled Career Performance Data, NAVPERS 1070/617, divides the left-hand side. Beneath this separator are your evaluation report and counseling record, commendations, and awards correspondence. If you have a previous enlistment, copies of any Certificates of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, DD Forms 214, are filed beneath the separator. All other papers are filed above the separator in chronological order, the most recent date on top. Only two forms from the enlisted service record will be discussed in this chapter. The remaining forms are more or less of an administrative nature. Some pages require several sheets during an enlistment. For example, there usually will be several page 13s. RECORD OF EMERGENCY DATA The Dependency Application/Record of Emergency Data, NAVPERS 1070/602, commonly known as page 2, is a multipurpose form and is used for both officer and enlisted personnel. Part I of this form serves as an application for dependency allowances. It is completed at the recruit training command or first duty station and whenever you gain or lose a dependent.
