• A. True
• B. False
• C. Cannot be determined
• D. Not stated

Answer: (B)

This statement is false. Evaluation records serve as a complete account of a member’s performance and conduct, and when a sex-related offense is substantiated and results in court-martial conviction, nonjudicial punishment, or other punitive action, that information should be included in the permanent record. Including it ensures promotions and assignments are based on an accurate history of behavior and reinforces accountability. If the offense is only an unsubstantiated allegation, different handling applies, but substantiated cases must be documented.
