is not creditable for pay purposes. Local command changes,
additions, or deletions in this section are prohibited. Any
information listed under "Prior Service" which is thought to be
in error will be corrected by the CMC (MMSB-10) and will require
specific documentation by the local command to justify any
change. The only exception to the above is if an item is left
blank and separate instructions are given for completion (i.e.,
Item 21D left blank for date discharged from last period of
service). In most cases, the date of discharge for the last
period of service will be the date prior to the date of acceptance
in item 22.
d. Item 22 - Administration of Oath. After the oath of
office has been given, the appointee will sign their full name on
the signature line of the original. The NAVMC 763 is printed on
self-carbonizing paper that will enable the signature from the
original to be transferred to all attached copies. Each copy of
the NAVMC 763 will be certified as a true copy by the appointee's
original signature (not the officer administering the oath) in
the certification area provided on the form. Special care should
be taken to ensure that a carbonized signature does not appear in
the certification portion of any copy. Type the organization/
location at which the appointment is taking place on the line
following: "Subscribed and duly sworn to before me at unit." For
example: MCCDC, QUANTICO, VA. Enter the date as 1ST, 2D, 3D,
etc., JAN, FEB, MAR, ETC., and 98, 99, etc. The officer administering
the oath will sign the original copy on the line provided.
All remaining copies must bear the carbonized signature of the
appointing officer. The name, grade, and component of the
officer administering the oath will be typed below the signature
line.
e. EFF DATE - Effective Date. The effective date is used
primarily for reversions and resignations when the officer
departs the area and must sign item 22 prior to the effective
date. In every instance in which "effective date" is used, the
CMC (MCRC) will provide specific authority. In all other cases,
the effective date is the date the NAVMC 763 is signed as entered
in item 22, regardless of any date entered in the "effective
date" that was entered without proper authority.
4. The commander of the organization designated to administer
the oath of office will immediately make distribution of the
completed NAVMC 763, as follows:
