 ITs, HMs, YNs. These rates and more are eligible for a Selective Reenlistment Bonus or SRB. These bonuses provide monetary incentives for sailors. Individuals with critical skills are valuable to the fleet and the Navy wants to ensure they are properly rewarded for their hard work and encouraged to stay in the Navy. SRBs are the Navy's primary force shaping tool to achieve enlisted retention requirements and ratings. There were several updates made to this year's SRB plan, including 26 monetary award increases and 15 skills were added to the list. SRBs are highly responsive and adaptive to the needs of the Navy and are subject to change. If you are eligible for a bonus, work with your career counselors, command master chiefs, and chain of command well before your reenlistment to find out what you need to do. Check out the NAV admin on the Navy Personnel Command website to find out what rates and skills are eligible.
