S1NET Message Summary - 16 Mar 23

1. ARMY DIRECTIVE 2023-08, ARMY BODY FAT ASSESSMENT EXEMPTION FOR ARMY COMBAT FITNESS TEST SCORE, 15 MAR 23. This directive implements immediate changes to the Army Body Composition Program (ABCP) that address findings from the scientific assessment of the program. It provides incentives to Soldiers to maintain physical readiness and establishes the process for body fat assessment exemptions when warranted. Effective immediately, all Soldiers who score 540 points or more on the record Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT), with a minimum of 80 points in each event, are exempt from the Army body fat circumference-based tape assessment. This policy applies to Soldiers who complete all six primary events of the ACFT; no alternate events are authorized. The exemption is not retroactive. Visit the following link for additional information. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1237438 2. FY23 MSG EVALUATION BOARD ELIGIBILITY LIST (AC/USAR AGR/IMA). From HRC Enlisted Promotions:  The FY23 MSG Evaluation Board Eligibility List has been released on the HRC website, and attached at the following link on S1NET. This list contains the identified MSGs who, as of 1 February, meet the Eligibility Requirements of the Evaluation Board. If a Soldier does not see his or her name on the list and does not have a My Board File (MBF), but has determined that he or she should have an MBF, the Soldier must contact Senior Enlisted Promotions to be added to the board. Failing to do so will not result in a later reconsideration. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1237287 3. AMHRR FILING OF AWARD CERTIFICATES. From HRC Army Soldier Records Branch: The HRC, Awards and Decorations Branch has revised procedural guidance outlined in AR 600-8-22 as it pertains to authoritative source document requirements filed in the Soldier’s Army Military Human Resource Record (AHMRR).  With the release of IPPS-A R3 on 17 January 2023 as the authoritative source for AAM, ARCOM, MSM, and LOM’s the Army must transition its filing processes for those awards that were not subsumed by IPPS-A. Effective 17 January 2023, award certificates are no longer authorized for filing in the member's AMHRR file/folder. DA 638s are now filed as the actual award received, (e.g., DA 638 for an AAM is filed as an AAM, ARCOM as an ARCOM, etc...). In addition, if an award certificate is a standalone document with a date prior to 17 January 2023, the certificate will be processed as an award document. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/message/1017169 4. RE-CERTIFYING A DECLINATION OF SGLI COVERAGE. SGLI Online Enrollment System (SOES) is the system of record for all Servicemembers’ Group Life Insurance (SGLI) updates.  Therefore, Soldiers must use SOES for all requests to change, cancel, restore, or re-certify SGLI coverage.  As of December 2022, SOES has the capability to recertify $0 coverage within the program and a SGLV 8286 is no longer used for this action.  If a Soldier has a problem with their SOES access, they must call the DMDC Support Center for technical support (1-800-477-8227). https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-823724 5. HRC - G1/S1 TOUCHPOINT AS OF 20230315.
