1. This ALCGENL provides a timeline and amplifying guidance for the 2024 SECB.
The title denotes the year in which the non-continued members must retire. For
the 2024 SECB, active duty enlisted members in paygrades E-7 to E-9 become
candidates when they have greater than or equal to 20 years, but less than 21
years of active military service; greater than or equal to 25 years, but less
than 26 years; or greater than or equal to 30 years, but less than 31 years of
active military service, as of 31 December 2023.

2. SECB candidate criteria can be found in Reference (a).

3. The Time in Service (TIS) definition for active duty enlisted members
identified as 2024 SECB candidates is based on all military service reflected
in their Active Duty Base Date (ADBD) in Direct Access. If a member believes
their ADBD is incorrect, they should request a Statement of Creditable Service
(SOCS) through their unit admin office and immediately notify CG PSC-EPM-1 of
any corrections. More information regarding the SOCS process can be found at:
https://www.dcms.uscg.mil/ppc/adv/socs/.

4. The initial list of 2024 SECB candidates is posted on the CG PSC-EPM-1
SharePoint Site at: https://uscg.sharepoint-mil.us/sites/psc_spo/psc-epm/epm-1
/Boards%20and%20Panels/SitePages/Senior-Enlisted-Continuation-Board-(SECB).aspx

personnel electronics records management system (iPERMS) and professional
information in Direct Access (e.g. awards, training history, competencies,
education, etc.). Each candidate should work with their SPO or admin office to
