If a complaint of a sexual-related offense is made against a member of the Armed Forces and the complaint is substantiated and the member is convicted by court-martial or receives non-judicial punishment or administrative action for such sexual-related offense, a notation to that effect shall be placed in the personnel service record of the member, regardless of the member's grade. The purpose of the inclusion of information in personnel service records under paragraph
(1)is to alert commanders to the members of their command who have received courts-martial conviction, non-judicial punishment, or administrative action for sexual-related offenses in order to reduce the likelihood that repeat offenses will escape the notice of commanders. A notation under subsection
(a)may not be placed in the restricted section of the personnel service record of a member. Nothing in subsection
(a)or
(b)may be construed to prohibit or limit the capacity of a member of the Armed Forces to challenge or appeal the placement of a notation, or location of placement of a notation, in the member's personnel service record in accordance with procedures otherwise applicable to such challenges or appeals. For purposes of implementing this section, the Secretary of Defense shall use the definition of substantiated developed for purposes of the annual report on sexual assaults involving members of the Armed Forces prepared under section 1631 of the Ike Skelton National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011 ( 10 U.S.C. 1561 note). Under uniform regulations prescribed by the Secretary of Defense, the commanding officer of a facility, installation, or unit to which a member of the Armed Forces described in paragraph
(2)is permanently assigned or transferred shall review the history of substantiated sexual offenses of the member in order to familiarize such officer with such history of the member. A member of the Armed Forces described in this paragraph is a member of the Armed Forces who, at the time of assignment or transfer as described in paragraph (1), has a history of one or more substantiated sexual offenses as documented in the personnel service record of such member or such other records or files as the Secretary shall specify in the regulations prescribed under paragraph (1).
