Stop the military from involuntarily breaking service members enlisted contracts when it is not congressionally mandated

Created by J.B. on August 25, 2012

On 9/1/12, the Navy is going illegally break 2,946 sailors contracts via an Enlisted Retention Board (ERB) they claim was congressionally mandated. The Navy force is at 321,053, well below the 325,700 that is mandated by the FY2012 NDAA law. ERB is being used to fix Navy Leadership's mismanagement of jobs, not to meet congressionally mandated endstrength. While they are violating these sailors contracts, they are offering BONUSES to sailors in the same jobs to go to sea because they claim they are undermanned now. Do NOT allow our Navy leadership to dishonor our service members to fix their mistakes. The ERB has ruined the morale across the fleet and is a disgrace to the Navy. Help these sailors before it's too late and ensure that this never happens to another service member again.
